Depending on the VW version, you may have a ‘Web Server’ -> ‘Fortification’ settings page where you can set the limits for Request Status Line (i.e., something like GET /yourPath?yourQuery…. HTTP/1.1 stuff). By default it’s set to 8K, so if you try to do a GET with long enough query, you will hit a limit as well. The reason web servers have this is to protect against certain types of DOS attacks.
