What is the current behavior?

I'm trying to upload a large file (~2GB) through the gateway, however it crashes with the following error:

tyk_gateway      | fatal error: runtime: out of memory                                                                         
tyk_gateway      |                                                                                                                               
tyk_gateway      | runtime stack:                                                                                                                 
tyk_gateway      | runtime.throw(0xf170fd, 0x16)

What is the expected behavior?

Does Tyk support large file uploads? I did not find anything on the documentation about how to configure Tyk to support large file uploads.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem

• Start Gateway
• Create API definition to httpbin.org
• Try to upload a large file and notice

Which versions of Tyk affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of Tyk?

2.8.1 (from latest docker image)
