+.TH CURLOPT_UPLOAD_BUFFERSIZE 3 "18 Aug 2018" "libcurl 7.62.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_UPLOAD_BUFFERSIZE \- set preferred upload buffer size
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_UPLOAD_BUFFERSIZE, long size);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a long specifying your preferred \fIsize\fP (in bytes) for the upload
+buffer in libcurl. It makes libcurl uses a larger buffer that gets passed to
+the next layer in the stack to get sent off. In some setups and for some
+protocols, there's a huge performance benefit of having a larger upload
+buffer.
+
+This is just treated as a request, not an order. You cannot be guaranteed to
+actually get the given size.
+
+The upload buffer size is by default 64 kilobytes. The maximum buffer size
+allowed to be set is 2 megabytes. The minimum buffer size allowed to be set is
+16 kilobytes.
+
+Since curl 7.61.1 the upload buffer is allocated on-demand - so if the handle
+isn't used for upload, this buffer will not be allocated at all.
+.SH DEFAULT
+64 kB
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+All
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/foo.bin");
+
+ /* ask libcurl to allocate a larger upload buffer */
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_UPLOAD_BUFFERSIZE, 120000L);
+
+ ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+
+ curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
+}
+.fi
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+Added in 7.62.0.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
