I am on branch 0.1.13-release.
I see that the default BOOST_NETWORK_HTTP_SERVER_CONNECTION_BUFFER_SIZE is 1024 bytes.

I did some tests (by uploading 250 MB of file) and I see that setting it to 8192 bytes increases the transfer rate by 7 folds. With 4096, the transfer rate is increased by close to 5 folds. The test code is in here

Can we increase the default value of BOOST_NETWORK_HTTP_SERVER_CONNECTION_BUFFER_SIZE to 8192 bytes or may be 4096 bytes (for memory constrained systems)? (Few KB's shouldn't matter, I guess).
