Not reading the additional data will free the request processing thread
more quickly. Unfortunately most HTTP clients will not read the
response
- in case they can not write the full request.</p>
- <p>The default is <code>true</code>, so additional data is being
read.</p>

+ <p>Note if an error occurs during the request processing that triggers
+ a 5xx response, any unread request data will always be ignored and the
+ client connection will be closed once the error response has been
+ written.</p>
