If are really convinced this is a good idea you will have to remove
RequestContent interceptor from the protocol processing chain.
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.5.x/httpclient/xref/org/apache/http/impl/client/HttpClientBuilder.html#1079
The only way to do so it set a custom HttpProcessor when building
HttpClient instance with HttpClientBuilder. This can be done but one
needs to be careful when assembling a custom HttpProcessor. There are
several protocol interceptors whose absence in the protocol processing
chain is very likely to cause unexpected behavior.
Proceed at your own risk.
