10 MByte socket problem

[jbrichau]

Marten reports:

10 MByte Socket problem - this is a limitation within Gemstone and the
reading service method within Zinc should consider this ...

[MFeldtmann]

The low-level read call for a socket within Gemstone has a maximum buffer size of 10 MByte - if you get a request, which is larger than this size the system will not return the whole data. Actually Zinc must somehow try to read again from the socket until no more bytes are ready to read.

We ran into this problem, because we uploaded a csv file. which is larger than 10 Mbyte.

Will need to address this puppy separately from current work being done on issue_58 branch

This GemStone internal limit for the GsSocket>>read:into:startingAt: call will be bumped to several hundred MB in 3.2.16/3.3.1. Covered by GemStone Bug 46224...
