Thanks for testing!

No, this can't be ensured precisely because chunk sizes are advertised anywhere in the stream, and always after the headers. So you could very well pass a 1 MB chunk first, then have a 1 TB one which will be rejected. However, one of the interesting things with chunked encoding is that for a response to be valid, it MUST have the last empty chunk. So it is always enough to break the connection before the end to report an error, which is exactly what happened in your case. Best regards, Willy
