connecting to the server. Another use case consists in taking the routing
decision based on the request body's contents. This option placed in a
frontend or backend forces the HTTP processing to wait until either the whole
- body is received, or the request buffer is full, or the first chunk is
- complete in case of chunked encoding. It can have undesired side effects with
- some applications abusing HTTP by expecting unbuffered transmissions between
- the frontend and the backend, so this should definitely not be used by
- default.
