Description

When using THttpTransport after every request the server prints the following message:

TConnectedClient died: Could not refill buffer

However the operation seems to be completed successfully.

It doesn't matter what protocol is used (JSON, Binary). The issue can be observed independent of the client used (C++, JavaScript in Browser).

The error is thrown in the THttpTransport::refill function in the case where read from the transport returns 0.

I'm not sure if throwing an exception there is really necessary?
