sufficient for most requests.

+Note that raising this limit is only effective for disabling chunked
+transfer encoding and therefore should be used only where the remote
+server or a proxy only supports HTTP/1.0 or is noncompliant with the
+HTTP standard. Raising this is not, in general, an effective solution
+for most push problems, but can increase memory consumption
+significantly since the entire buffer is allocated even for small
+pushes.
