Comment # 6 on bug 10081 from
Frame 7463 contains 641 reassembled TCP segments of an HTTP packet.  Included
in the HTTP packet is 933k bytes of data.  Trying to allocate enough memory to
turn that into a string (933k * 3) for PDML is bigger than the maximum size of
memory allowed by emem (artifical limit).

Obviously we could make the limit bigger, which only works until we hit the
next really large byte field.  Perhaps we need some handling to break byte (and
string?) fields into parts to easy memory allocation?
