    Increase the connector read size from 1024 to 65536.
    
    Since Flash doesn't provide any way of knowing if sent data was sent
    successfully or not, it pushes everything it can't send immediately on a
    buffer of unbounded size. If the receiver can't read the data fast
    enough, Flash will consume more and more memory until it crashes.
    
    I don't think this will matter much for Tor or even plain Internet
    connections, but it's crashing my high-speed localhost tests.
