You can change it to a higher value if input documents can legitimately exceed the default limit, or to a lower value if specific attacks are observed or the system has a lower resource allocation. The maximum value allowed is 2147483647 (Integer.MAX_VALUE in Java). If you set 0 or if you don’t set the property, the connector takes the default value.
