For performance reasons.....   Turning chunking off can reduce performance by 
20-30% for messages larger than about 4K.   It also severely increased memory 
usage causing all kinds of scalability problems.

CXF 2.1.2 (releasing today once it synced everywhere), changes things a little 
bit.   For messages 4K and smaller, it doesn't use chunking.   Once the 
message hits 4K, it flips to chunking mode (unless turned off).
