First, you're clearly talking libcurl details here so you are much better off
on the curl-library mailing list. This list is for the curl command line tool.

But to answer the question: libcurl will call the callback as soon as it has
received data, so as long as libcurl reads smaller data amounts from the
socket the callback will gets smaller data chunks.
