Hi, I have a basic question regarding the
MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT option to MHD_start_daemon.

Will the size given to MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT limit the
maximum permitted size of any request?

Thank you,

OK, in that case I have a follow-up question.

We recently started to play with this connection memory limit option 
(MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT)
and we have seen that requests with larged payload stops working for low memory 
limits.

To give some detail, changing MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT to 64k, the 
max accepted size of payload seems to be 33509 bytes.

If a bigger payload is sent, then MHD responds with the following message:

    HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
    Content-Length: 132
    Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2015 13:53:15 GMT


    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <html>
      <head>
        <title>Internal server error</title>
      </head>
      <body>Some programmer needs to study the manual more carefully.</body>
    </html>


Our MHD_AccessHandlerCallback function is called twice with payload (apart from 
the first call), and then
the MHD_OPTION_NOTIFY_COMPLETED callback is called and MHD responds by itself.

With a bigger value for MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT this did not happen.

The version of the MHD we use:
#define MHD_VERSION 0x00093300



So, we might be doing something the wrong way.
Please tell us what to do to be able to receive large payloads with a "small" 
MHD_OPTION_CONNECTION_MEMORY_LIMIT.

Thank you again,

/KZ
