It is odd to suggest that maximum request size implies something about scalability.
For example, the Google search api (the one that uses the search engine) has a 2KByte size limit. The search box itself has similar limits. If I write a simple text comparison program that allows 1MByte queries, would you say that said program scales more than Google search? If Google changed the search limit to 10KByte, would you say that they'd made search more scalable? Would changing it to 500 bytes mean that it was less scalable?
