Hi Daniel,
I tried to trace into curl codes and found it *always* crashes here:

CURLcode Curl_client_write( )
{
    ::::
    if ( type & CLIENTWRITE_BODY) {
        wrote = data->set.fwrite(......) <--- this line
    }
    ::::
}

this is the call stack:
Curl_client_write( ) -- sendf.c
Curl_httpchunk_read( ) -- http_chunks.c
Curl_readwrite( ) --transfer.c
Transfer( ) -- transfer.c
Curl_perform( ) -- transfer.c
curl_easy_perform( ) -- easy.c

Here I would like to talk about what I found so far:

- my application needs to call Curl_readwrite( ) only once in order to fetch
JPEG image data from server
- Curl_httpchunk_read( ) gets called for every *chunked* data
- In each chunk, Curl_client_write( ) gets called for each so-called *piece*

In my case, it always crash within CURLcode Curl_client_write( ) for 15th
piece ( 558-byte one )
1st chunk: [146 bytes....]\r\n
2nd chunk: [8184 bytes....]\r\n[562 bytes....]
3rd chunk: [7622 bytes....]\r\n[8184 bytes....]\r\n[561 bytes....]
4th chunk: [7623 bytes....]\r\n[8184 bytes....]\r\n[560 bytes....]
5th chunk: [7624 bytes....]\r\n[8184 bytes....]\r\n[559 bytes....]
6th chunk: [7625 bytes....]\r\n[8184 bytes....]\r\n[558 bytes....]

^^^^^^^^^^^ crash within CURLcode Curl_client_write( , , ,558)
I will try to keep debuging it more detailedly

> How big is "big" and how small is "smaller"?

so far, at least I found it is ok for like 10k, but it crashes for 70k

I think so, but it is reproduceable in my case

yes, certainly

thanks a lot
