### Changed from OWASP defaults
### To suit Kibana (long ajax uris) breaking 1024
### Still keeping it very true to 1k
### Changed from OWASP recommendations: "2 1k" to "2 1280" (So 1.2k)
### When you pass though potentially another reverse proxy/load balancer
### in front of tpotce you can introduce more headers than normal and
### therefore you can exceed the allowed header buffer of 1k.
### An 280 extra bytes seems to be working for most use-cases.
### And still keeping it close to OWASP's recommendation.
