Windows CE internally maintains a per socket queue of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) datagrams that haven't yet been processed by applications. Once this queue fills up, packets are discarded (beginning with the oldest ones first). The result is that applications that send a large number of UDP datagrams quickly can experience large amounts of packet loss.
