Yes, there is. "-mx<number>" sets the maximum heap size. This
is 16MB or thereabouts by default.
Setting it to 24000000 and to 40000000 didn't help, but setting it to
80000000 did.
I guess reallocating the byte array when neccessary, requires a bit of
space? Hm... maybe I can set the size of the byte array before
writing into the ByteArrayOutputStream? I know how large it at least
has to be from the size of the file I'm trying to POST.
