From Ken,

My opinion is that common sense would dictate trying a little (to a lot) more than the minimum required, esp. if the minimum required didn't work. We did this on the client side but forgot about the server side. I'm not sure there is a real problem here.

However, there *is* a problem to the extent that the error message did not inform us what was really wrong. At a minimum it could have said what size the request was and what size was allowed. In addition, presumably the client side knew it was a server problem and could have said so. A good error message is a lot better than putting it in the documentation and troubleshooting. (I didn't look at either of those for this problem.)
