Form sizes

Jetty limits form submission sizes to 200000 bytes by default. This can cause the following error to occur when attempting to edit a large page in Confluence.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Form too large

This limit may be adjusted via the org.mortbay.http.HttpRequest.maxFormContentSize system property passed to the JVM on startup. Setting this value to 500000 may be a good start to avoid this problem but please note that setting this value too high can leave your server vulnerable to denial of service attacks.
