CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE \- size of POST data pointed to

.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE,

If you want to post data to the server without having libcurl do a strlen() to
measure the data size, this option must be used. When this option is used you
can post fully binary data, which otherwise is likely to fail. If this size is
set to -1, the library will use strlen() to get the size.
.SH DEFAULT
-1
