Specs:
Occasionally one of my clients will send a large payload (greater than the default 8192 byte buffer size) and when this happens the server kills the connection with a CloseReason of 1009 (Too Large). I'd rather configure the server to ignore the occasional large message rather than nuking the connection. Is this possible?
Take a look at the documentation for Tomcat 8, this one is for binary messages:
The default buffer size for binary messages is 8192 bytes. This may be changed for a web application by setting the servlet context initialization parameter org.apache.tomcat.websocket.binaryBufferSize to the desired value in bytes.
This is also the same for text messages:
The default buffer size for text messages is 8192 bytes. This may be changed for a web application by setting the servlet context initialization parameter org.apache.tomcat.websocket.textBufferSize to the desired value in bytes.

If you are using WebSocketContainer there is also the following methods: setDefaultMaxBinaryMessageBufferSize and setDefaultMaxTextMessageBufferSize.
