Kristján Valur Jónsson <krist...@ccpgames.com> added the comment: I have looked at this for py3k. the behaviour of HTTPResponse.fp.read() is the same, wheter fp is buffered or not: a read() will read to EOF for HTTP/1.1, which means blocking indefinetely. So, read() is forbidden for HTTP/1.1. For fp.read(n), buffered IO won't attempt to read more than is on the stream, if n bytes are avalible (SocketIO.read(N) will return a<N and not block) so there is no reason not to use buffering.
