An Apache module that provides % directives for logging the size (in bytes) of request and response headers.
Intermediaries may impose limits on the amount of bytes that are allowed in the request or response headers. As a result, it is a good idea to monitor the size amount of bytes being transferred in the request and response headers. This module allows you to log this information, which you later process with an application of your choice.
