Help me understand why a 436M CSV file uploaded as a standalone attachment
would have varying performance depending on the Content-Type header?  For
example, if I upload the CSV as text/csv it takes ~36s, but as
application/octet-stream it takes ~13s.  Furthermore, when uploaded as
text/csv the process uses 100% CPU time on one of my cores, but as
application/octet-stream it maxes out around 70%.

curl commands:

time curl -XPUT -v -H 'Content-Type: text/csv' '

time curl -XPUT -v -H 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream' '
