Following error message appears in the log.
INFO: cgi: runCGI (stderr):CGI.pm: Server closed socket during multipart read 
(client aborted?).

The problem is that when creating the inputstream for cgi component there is 
only one single 'read' on the ServletInputStream, in reasonably large uploads 
this will not drain the buffer.

I have a pathch ready and it looks like this:

Hope someone can commit it to cvs repository.

Maybe there should be an initial parameter for the servlet also that restricts 
maximum size of the upload?
