According to
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/201213
this is an acknowledged bug that's been broken since Windows 95, so
I suppose we should conclude that M$ is unwilling or incompetent to
fix it.

Possibly the best workaround is something like

+ #ifndef WIN32
                sent = pqsecure_write(conn, ptr, len);
+ #else
+               /* Windows tends to fail on large sends, see KB 20213 */
+               sent = pqsecure_write(conn, ptr, Min(len, 65536));
+ #endif

in pqSendSome().  The backend seems to not be subject to a similar
problem because it's already filtering its output through a limited-size
buffer.

                        regards, tom lane
