RFR 8184285: Buffer sizes of Flow based BodyProcessor API

[Chris Hegarty]

Tobias,

Your mail provoked me look further into the issue of memory usage in the implementation. I now see that there is certainly the possibility for an extreme amount of memory to be used in the pathological case. I filed an issue to track this ( it has more details ), and have a proposed change in progress.
