Yep.

- We can look into sending the content length header from the output compression callback if ithe output is not send as chunks we should do so - the original code for that (10 lines) was added by me and taken out by you a few days later when you added the chunking support.

Ah, good point. That's exactly what I meant if somebody can think about good reasons not to do it :) Chunking is quite important, and there's no way we can know in advance how many bytes we're going to end up having. Unless we add in another output buffer. Zeev
