Hello, bringing this back from the grave.

Nicolas Frattaroli:

I align with your logic about naming toward the effect, and
max_requested_size makes sense.

As for the concurrency concern, can you help me understand it a bit
more with an example?
In this way I can research it (or if there are any SMEs please step in).

Zhao's statement about potential server flooding is also valid.
If there's strong opinion from others there I think its worth to hear.

In my eyes someone can accomplish the same effect with changing header
values directly or using curl.
It my also be for legitimate reasons.

Thank you all,
Marth64
