Public bug reported:

Pound will fail to serve request if the total header size is larger than
4K, with large cookes, fx when storing SAML tokens for single sign in,
this limit will be reached.

For most web servers the limit is around 8K:

So why not compile pound with that as the default:

--with-maxbuf=8192
