My point here is that if I have X requests then there can be X * CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED bytes in memory at one time.
I see what you mean. But the above calculation does not make sense: CONTENT_LENGTH_CHUNKED is a (negative) integer that signals to HttpClient that you do not want the request to be buffered.
As previously pointed out by others the (implicit) small buffering in memory is hardly avoidable and you should just accept it as a fact. Even with thousands of connection this should not be too much of a problem if you configure your JVM to use enough memory.
Currently the buffer size is hard coded in EntityEnclosingMethod::writeRequestBody to 4096 bytes. Maybe we could make this configurable if this helps you.
