The client has been SIGKILLed, so it’s not assuming anything. I wonder whether the comment is a typo and they meant to kill -9 the server instead.
Hypothetically if this was HTTP without a Content-length (like it used to be in the olden days), you could have a proxy server assume this is the entire file.
Perhaps a permanently hung connection because timeout is zero (=disabled?)?
