Obviously not yours,  sorry if you misunderstood!   It was the ibm'er who
wrote "usually large enough to hold all input ... "

If your program:

 1) Can potentially post a lot of messages (more than 5) in a short
    period of time,  or

 2) relies on the message for something essential

I think it would be a good idea.
