Set LWM to half of HWL.

Browse Source 
This reduces chances of race between writer deactivation and activation.

Reader sends activation command to writer when number or messages is
multiple of LWM. In situation with high throughput (millions of messages
per second) and correspondingly large HWM (e.g. 10M) the difference
between HWM needs to be large enough - so that activation command is
received before pipe becomes full.
