The main point of this would be that the write callback +gets called more often and with smaller chunks. This is just treated as a +request, not an order. You cannot be guaranteed to actually get the given +size. + +This size is by default set as big as possible (\fICURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE\fP), so +it only makes sense to use this option if you want it smaller. +.SH DEFAULT +CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE +.SH PROTOCOLS +All +.SH EXAMPLE +TODO +.SH AVAILABILITY +Added in 7.10 +.SH RETURN VALUE +Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED "(3), " CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION "(3), " |
