Well
The effect will be only that the caching of pages in the memory will increase and if it is increase upto much extends, it will consume the more memory of the system. It may increase or decrease the performance of an application.

the default buffer size is 8k and when we increase the buffer size of the page using the buffer attribute of the page directive then the storage capacity will be increased .if the buffer size is too large then the performance will degrade.
instead of increasing the buffer size use autoFlush=true ,bydefault the autoFlush is true only.so even the content i.e to be send to the client crosses
8k the jsp doesnot throws exception.
