Does anything carried inside HTTP care about chunk sizes? Some sort of RPC protocol perhaps?
EDIT: Here’s the Wikipedia sample response
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2009 22:22:21 GMT HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: text/plain Transfer-Encoding: chunked 23 This is the data in the first chunk 1A and this is the second one 0 The response could have easily been chopped up into chunks of sizes different from 23 and 1A. Is there a case where chunk boundaries may be significant?
None that I know of. It would be against the spirit of HTTP if not an outright bug.
