Hi all,

Over the past few days, I have been fighting with the following issue. The
scenario revolves around a Jetty 9.2.7 based application, in which a
request gets POSTed to a servlet. The HTTP payload in the request is to be
consumed.

The servlet implementation overrides doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response). We experience that request.available()
returns zero in this implementation (which causes problems when trying to
consume the HTTP payload using the InputStream from the request). This
happens with some frequency (approximately once in every 50 requests).

The work-around that we have in place: invoke Thread.sleep(100) when
request.available() returns zero. This works, but is an undesirable
solution.

The efforts to reproduce the problem in a more compact code-base than the
elaborate servlet and client implementations in our products have not been
successful.

I am looking for thoughts on the cause of this issue, suggestions for
fixes, and/or approaches to create a portable reproduction path. Any help
is much appreciated!

Regards,

  Guus
