[undertow-dev] Is it ok to do a blocking action from a Receiver callback?

[Stuart Douglas]

It will generally be handled by an IO thread, although it can depend
on how large the request is. If a request is small enough that it gets
read immediately then the request will be handled in the same thread,
otherwise it will be handled by the IO thread to full read the
request.
