I wish this was a joke: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2397.html http://www.mozilla.org/quality/networking/docs/aboutdata.html And trust me, this is not even one of the worst parts of the web this days. But that is not what I was referring to, fortunately data: urls are not too common yet (but their popularity has been growing lately.) We had problems with URLs >200 bytes long or so, I don't remember the details, they are probably in the logs of #acme as fgb and me investigated it some weeks ago. Now that I think about it, it certainly seems very strange how writes were split so early, I'm not sure if we checked the exact iounit value, but it certainly seemed strangely low to me. uriel
