Restrictive HTTP proxies unable to retrieve directory due to file size restrictions

Jun 11 18:42:24.593 [notice] Application request when we're believed to be offline. Optimistically trying again. Jun 11 18:42:39.094 [warn] connection_dir_client_reached_eof(): Received http status code 413 ("Request entity too large") from server '18.244.0.114'. Failing.

Could it be possible to try retrieving the directory in chunks to circumvent this? Or simply try obtaining smaller subsets of the directory?
