How can I set a maximum limit for gzip module?

Hi tokers,

Thanks for explanation about gzip-module.
So, there were no errors when upstream response size exceeds the
gzip_buffers_size.
But I think a lot of large responses exceed the prepared buffers, some day.
Is there any possibility of such a problem?

Thank you.
