Description
Long story short
The http client doesn't really support overriding the default header value length of 8190, even though the parser parameter is there
aiohttp/aiohttp/http_parser.py
Line 59 in e7c9390
This results in the error message:
aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientResponseError: 400, message='Got more than 8190 bytes when reading Header value is too long.'

Expected behaviour
I can either set the parser in the session/get request, or set the max_field_size.
Actual behaviour
I can't do either
Steps to reproduce
I believe this will do it:
import aiohttp
import asyncio
@asyncio.coroutine
def main():
with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
resp = yield from session.get('http://test.xr6.me')
print(len(resp.headers['X-TEST-HEADER']))
resp.close()
if __name__ == "__main__":
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(
asyncio.gather(main())
)
loop.close()
Your environment
Ubuntu jessie (bash for windows, reproduces on others though)
python3.4 (also reproduces on others)
