.TH CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE 3 "January 02, 2023" "libcurl 7.88.1" "curl_multi_setopt options"

.SH NAME
CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE \- size threshold for pipelining penalty
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE,
                            long size);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
No function since pipelining was removed in 7.62.0.

Pass a long with a \fBsize\fP in bytes. If a transfer in a pipeline is
currently processing a request with a Content-Length larger than this
\fICURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE(3)\fP, that pipeline will then not be
considered for additional requests, even if it is shorter than
\fICURLMOPT_MAX_PIPELINE_LENGTH(3)\fP.
.SH DEFAULT
The default value is 0, which means that the size penalization is inactive.
.SH PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S)
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
CURLM *m = curl_multi_init();
long maxlength = 10000;
curl_multi_setopt(m, CURLMOPT_CONTENT_LENGTH_PENALTY_SIZE, maxlength);
.fi
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.30.0
