> When replicating from a remote source CouchDB uses the open_revs query string 
> parameter in a document request and supplies a list of revisions that are 
> present on the source but not on the target.  If this list is very large the 
> resulting URL might exceed 8 KB, in which case MochiWeb/gen_tcp will not 
> serve the request.
> I'm sure there are a number of ways to work around this limitation.  I'm 
> attaching a patch that checks if the URL formed from the list of revs to open 
> will be larger than 8 KB, and if so chunks the list and makes multiple 
> smaller requests.  Best,
> Adam
