Additional info:

Pulp produced this error message:

Seems like the limit on the maximum file size changed between django releases, currently limiting the size to something around 2.5 MB:

cat /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/conf/global_settings.py | grep DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE
DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE = 2621440 # i.e. 2.5 MB

We need to update hammer to conform to this size (the chunk size there is 4 000 000 bytes at the moment.

Additional issue is the warning: Overriding "Content-Type" header "multipart/form-data" with "multipart/form-data; boundary=----RubyFormBoundaryueJ8T7XEKh2BLjan" due to payload - this seems to be an issue in rest-client: until it's fixed properly in there, we should suppress the warning, which is very confusing to the user.
