Usually, a decoder will store it for later use to deal with fragmentation.  If data is lost, there is high chance where it is stored but not consumed completely somewhere in your pipeline.

My problem turned out to be that I did not use an Execution handler
and a OrderedMemoryAwareThreadPoolExecutor. Which I needed to be able
to block in ChannelHandler when my intermediate buffers filled up.
