C seems right to me. Throughput stays the same regardless of frame size.

I disagree, I lean towards D. We need to adjust buffer credits for max throughput.

I think A is correct. Doubling the frame size should halve the throughput.

How does that even work? Sounds confusing!

D) The buffer credits definitely need to be adjusted.

Wait, doubling the frame size means more data, right?

A) The throughput is halved.

I feel like the throughput should remain the same since it's just the frame size changing, but I need to think more about how buffer credits play into that.

If I recall correctly, doubling the frame size could mean we need to adjust buffer credits to maintain throughput, so I might lean towards option D.

I remember a similar question where we discussed how frame size impacts throughput, but I can't recall the exact relationship.

I think if the frame size doubles, the throughput might be affected, but I'm not sure if it halves or stays the same.
