 .IP "leave_pidfile yes"
 instructs the agent to not remove its pid file on shutdown. Equivalent to
 specifying "-U" on the command line.
+.IP "maxGetbulkRepeats NUM"
+Sets the maximum number of responses allowed for a single variable in
+a getbulk request.  Set to 0 to enable the default and set it to -1 to
+enable unlimited.  Because memory is allocated ahead of time, sitting
+this to unlimited is not considered safe if your user population can
+not be trusted.  A repeat number greater than this will be truncated
+to this value.
+.IP
+This is set by default to -1.
+.IP "maxGetbulkResponses NUM"
+Sets the maximum number of responses allowed for a getbulk request.
+This is set by default to 100.  Set to 0 to enable the default and set
+it to -1 to enable unlimited.  Because memory is allocated ahead of
+time, sitting this to unlimited is not considered safe if your user
+population can not be trusted.
+.IP
+In general, the total number of responses will not be allowed to
+exceed the maxGetbulkResponses number and the total number returned
+will be an integer multiple of the number of variables requested times
+the calculated number of repeats allow to fit below this number.
+.IP
+Also not that processing of maxGetbulkRepeats is handled first.
 .SS SNMPv3 Configuration
 SNMPv3 requires an SNMP agent to define a unique "engine ID"
 in order to respond to SNMPv3 requests.
