Request headers too large - causing HTTP/1.1 413 FULL head

We are attempting to run a HTTP mock web service in SoapUI 3.0 (and 3.5) and the request header is generally around the 5.5k mark.  We're currently getting the following response:

HTTP/1.1 413 FULL head
Connection: close
Server: Jetty(6.1.x)

Apparently jetty can be configured to allow a larger request header size using the HeaderBufferSize but how do we set this in SoapUI?

    Hi added that property to the soapui.sh file and noted the comment in the log:

    14:03:25,733 INFO  [SoapUI] Set property [headerBufferSize] to [8192] in scope [soapui.mock.connector]

    Thank you - it worked perfectly!!

    Hello Sir i am getting 413 Full Head error in SOAP UI 4.5.1 version.
    added this -Dsoapui.mock.connector.headerBufferSize=8192 in .vmoptions files
    this error is occuring because of large request.
    then also getting the same error.

    how to add this property in bin file.
    please give any other options to fix this issue.
