> There are certain deployments, where increasing the {{maxFormContentSize}} configuration is required because the default 200kB is not enough in POST forms.
> Jetty checks these configurations on two levels: first in the context, and then, if the context is not available (it's a very rare non-typical Jetty deployment), looks it up in the server's attributes:
> {noformat}
> The form content that a request can process is limited to protect from Denial of Service attacks. The size in bytes is limited by {@link ContextHandler#getMaxFormContentSize()} or if there is no context then the "org.eclipse.jetty.server.Request.maxFormContentSize" {@link Server} attribute.
> The number of parameters keys is limited by {@link ContextHandler#getMaxFormKeys()} or if there is no context then the "org.eclipse.jetty.server.Request.maxFormKeys" {@link Server} attribute.{noformat}
> Please note that these configurations are controlled by the System properties called {{org.eclipse.jetty.server.Request.maxFormKeys}} and {{{}org.eclipse.jetty.server.Request.maxFormContentSize{}}}.
> This Jira is about to override them in {{{}gateway-site.xml{}}}.
