Unfortunately removing the available() method agains gives us back 44494. But there is some hope.
B2CConverter gets used for two different things: 1) It is associated with a request and used inside the adapter to decode the URI. In this case, it seems that during the lifetime of the ByteChunk underlying the B2CConverter (the URI ByteChunk) we only call conv.convert() once. So there is no real need for any conv.recycle() before conv.convert() (cleaning up some unrelated old ByteChunk; if we would need to do that, then we should do it at the end of convertURI for some request and not near the beginning of convertURI for some later request). 2) It is associated with the InputBuffer to transform input data. In this case we mightcall convert() multiple times and handle a difficult relationship between direct access to the Chunks and via convert. Here we need to clean up the ByteChunk at the end of the request handling. As far as I can see, the instances of B2CConverter used for 1) and for 2) are independant of each other. B2CConvertor.recycle() has only one action, it calls ReadConvertor.recycle(), which reads the remaining bytes in the ByteChunk() and throws them away. This seems to be good for 2) (e.g. BZ 44494), but it eats data from a ByteChunk instance associated with the B2CConverter during an earlier request in case 1). I would suggest to simply remove the conv.recycle in case 1). I dn't see any use of it. If we really think we need to eat up remaining bytes in the ByteChunk in 1), then we should do the conv.recycle() near the end of convertURI.
