+# The client output buffer limits can be used to force disconnection of clients
+# that are not reading data from the server fast enough for some reason (a
+# common reason is that a Pub/Sub client can't consume messages as fast as the
+# publisher can produce them).
+#
+# The limit can be set differently for the three different classes of clients:
+#
+# normal -> normal clients
+# slave  -> slave clients and MONITOR clients
+# pubsub -> clients subcribed to at least one pubsub channel or pattern
+#
+# The syntax of every client-output-buffer-limit directive is the following:
+#
+# client-output-buffer-limit <class> <hard limit> <soft limit> <soft seconds>
+#
+# A client is immediately disconnected once the hard limit is reached, or if
+# the soft limit is reached and remains reached for the specified number of
+# seconds (continuously).
+# So for instance if the hard limit is 32 megabytes and the soft limit is
+# 16 megabytes / 10 seconds, the client will get disconnected immediately
+# if the size of the output buffers reach 32 megabytes, but will also get
+# disconnected if the client reaches 16 megabytes and continuously overcomes
+# the limit for 10 seconds.
+#
+# By default normal clients are not limited because they don't receive data
+# without asking (in a push way), but just after a request, so only
+# asynchronous clients may create a scenario where data is requested faster
+# than it can read.
+#
+# Instead there is a default limit for pubsub and slave clients, since
+# subscribers and slaves receive data in a push fashion.
+#
+# Both the hard or the soft limit can be disabled just setting it to zero.
