CNN oneboxing failure

@ted Do you happen to remember why we reduced max_download_kb for onebox from 10mb to 2mb in SECURITY: Prevent Onebox cache overflow by limiting downloads and URL… · discourse/discourse@95a82d6 · GitHub?

The reported CNN links are not being oneboxed because the response size is 2.7mb which is greater than the current limit of 2mb. We can fix this by raising the default size but I would like to better the understand the risk of doing so.
