             Summary: Add support for streaming HTTP request bodies in libprocess.
                 Key: MESOS-6244
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6244
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: libprocess
            Reporter: Benjamin Mahler


We currently have support for streaming responses. See MESOS-2438.  Servers can start sending the response body before the body is complete. Clients can start reading a response before the body is complete. This is an optimization for large responses and is a requirement for infinite "streaming" style endpoints.

We currently do not have support for streaming requests. This would allow a client to stream a large or infinite request body to the server without having to have the complete body in hand, and it would allow a server to read request bodies before they are have been completely received over the connection.

This is a requirement if we want to allow clients to "stream" data into a server, i.e. an infinite request body.
