Suggested Config: |

This directives limits the header size of a received HTTP request (including request-line). Increasing this limit beyond its 64 KB default exposes certain old Squid code to various denial-of-service attacks. This limit also applies to received FTP commands. This limit has no direct affect on Squid memory consumption. Squid does not check this limit when sending requests. |
