I think that this patch will break platforms that use CFNETWORK_DATA_ARRAY_CALLBACK. Specifically, ResourceLoader::didReceiveDataArray() bails out if m_shouldBufferData is false.

This is probably a bug in didReceiveDataArray(), but it needs to be fixed prior to landing this.

I don't quite understand what the "should buffer data" option is about, and why it would cause huge leaks in the first place. CC'ing some folks who have more recent experience with this code.
