Request size limit on API endpoints might be too tight

[elmisback]

Not blocking for SC

Expressions with 5 or more variables seem to be crashing in Odyssey (no analyses come back) due to the request being too large. Maybe due to the "5 mb" size server request size limit set here:

herbie/src/api/demo.rkt

Line 569 in 1a83c9f

(* 5 1024 1024)) ; 5 mb body size for det44 bench mark.

but the request is only 1.16 MB according to the networking tab?

Example expression in Odyssey: x + y + z + x1 + y1

Causes herbie-fp/odyssey#183

A CORS error is displayed due to this probably https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60537280/why-browsers-display-cors-error-in-case-of-response-413

Ok, just to clarify, I think the browser is sending too large a request, since it sends the whole pcontext in the request. It's not about receiving too large a response.
