Compiling the libcurl with the -DCURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE=4096 option did
reduced the memory in about a half.

Is that what you would expect from that change?

Is there a way to reduce libcurl memory footprint even more?

Basically the application just use "GET" to retrieve http files (no
uploads/ssl etc..) ~ 10 threads 10 multi handles.

Many thanks,
