Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-475:
------------------------------------------

so readLength is the max size of a single field, and maxLength the max size of 
the entire rpc call?

is maxLength actually controlling a byte[] size somewhere, or not?  if it is 
then we do need to set it, or if the first 4 bytes correspond to a large int we 
still OOM.
