Sorry, perhaps I am being extremely slow, but even if the client writes
millions of bytes before it starts reading, I do not see how it would be a
problem as long as the other side reads these millions of bytes before
saying "Ok, I've heard about them and my response so far is Ack-continue
(or NAK)", which the client needs to read.
