Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HDFS-4549:
------------------------------------------

I think we should leave Jersey to decide what to use, chunk encoding or not. If 
we always force the content-length, we can run into issues in clients (I 
believe Java HTTP does -or used to do this-) that try to allocate a buffer in 
memory for the full content-length. By using chunk encoding, you are forcing 
the client to fallback on partial-caching/flushing.

Is the Jetty version use by Hadoop 1 that has issues with chunk encoding?

Also, if we don't see the problem in trunk/branch-2, why change it there? not 
broken, don't fix it.

> WebHDFS on branch-1 is hitting a Jetty issue for me when it does chunked 
> transfers. This is the same Jetty issue as MAPREDUCE-4399. I have not 
> observed this on trunk.
