fail earlier if server answers with too much data
We tend to operate on rather large static files, which means we usually get Content-Length information from the server. If we combine this information with the filesize we are expecting (factoring in pipelining) we can avoid reading a bunch of data we are ending up rejecting anyhow by just closing the connection saving bandwidth and time both for the server as well as the client.
