in thread libpcap, netpacket and decoding http data

Am I looking at a different module or simply reading this document wrong. http://search.cpan.org/~corion/Sniffer-HTTP-0.19/lib/Sniffer/HTTP.pm "As the whole response data is accumulated in memory you should be aware of memory issues. If you want to write stuff directly to disk, you will need to submit patches to Sniffer::Connection::HTTP."

    Note the directly. Currently, the module accumulates the complete request payload in RAM until the request has completed. Then it returns that data to your callback (for writing) and afterwards the memory is released.
