01:40:41 k​iersten5821:matrix.org: in what circumstances will a transfer have to be split into multiple tx? can't find in the docs
01:41:51 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: if its a sweep, of you use transfer_split on wallet-rpc and the tx is greater than 100kb
01:42:13 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: I dont remember if `transfer` on cli == `transfer_split` behavior
01:43:10 k​iersten5821:matrix.org: yeah it does say "this will be split in 2 tx" when i send to more than 15 outputs (16 or above causes split)
01:43:25 k​iersten5821:matrix.org: i saw tx with more than 100 inputs on block explorer before though
01:43:38 k​iersten5821:matrix.org: so wonder if there are any specifics on the cause
01:43:55 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: that too. If you send to > 15 outputs it will split into more txs (max is 16 out, so 15 + change)
01:44:16 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: Max inputs is only limited by size, (100kb)
01:44:24 k​iersten5821:matrix.org: thanks, so just the 16 output limit and 100 kb size limit? is there any reason why it's 16 outputs max?
01:44:53 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: I think its just a number thats been there for a long time (forever?)
01:45:52 k​iersten5821:matrix.org: it would be good to write this in the docs instead of having it stored just in brains and code
01:46:22 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: the 100kb size limit is actually 150kb by consensus
01:47:20 o​frnxmr:xmr.mx: 100kb is just the way reference wallet software constructs them. There have recently been some txs on chain that someone constructed with different software that use closer to 150kb
