Hi Jasper :) Do you think so? I checked the Go http server code and my not-so-careful reading seems to confirm their suspicions: it just reads from the body io.Reader, which doesn't seem to validate length. (They DO use a limit reader to prevent DoSing with huge bodies, at least.) Now if they were phoning out to a remote server, I’d assume some kind of fabric or load balancer. But I assume they’ve got a local etcd on each node or something along those lines so it is very possible that it’s all local networking. Though in most cases, outside of this use case, I’d agree that this is not particularly useful because it would never be terribly reliable. I know for a fact Amazon ELB rewrites the entire request, as an example...
