This allows to save expensive backend processes while serving large responses to slow clients. It doesn't imply reading "the whole response from the backend before a single byte is sent to the client" - as long as at least one buffer is full, it will be sent to a client. -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
