It's depending on the size of menu strings, it's good to keep them lowest as you can. In the tutorial they are a little bit higher... it's not really important, but it's good to keep memory low.
If you have something like this:
PHP Code:
menu_additem(menu,"Option","1")
Then it's better to set maximum characters of data to 2, because it contains only 1 character (you don't need more slots..., string "1" is 1 character, but it's lenght is 2 (0 + 1 reserved = 2)) and szName should be 7, because Option is 7 characters long (6 + 1 reserved). So it's good to keep these numbers as the size of the longest option strings. If we have another option that is longer than "Option" then it's better to write it's lenght and if you have a longer string as menu info, like -1, 10, 200, 1000 and so on, you can do the same with the data variable.
But it won't be a big problem if you leave them higher, like in the tutorial.
