HAProxy does not buffer HTTP Posts. Unfortunately, it can't terminate
SSL so if you're trying to upload via an HTTPS connection you'll need
to find a different solution altogether. FWIW, this appears to be a
frequent feature request for Nginx. I even offered to sponsor the
development, but never got a response. I'm not sure what the hangup
was.
