All users of HttpURLConnection

Please describe the feature requested.

Quoted from above:

"For best performance, you should call either setFixedLengthStreamingMode(int) 
when the body length is known in advance, or setChunkedStreamingMode(int) when 
it is not. Otherwise HttpURLConnection will be forced to buffer the complete 
request body in memory before it is transmitted, wasting (and possibly 
exhausting) heap and increasing latency."
