Do you have a code sample? It would help to see what you're doing. > I expected onDataAvailable() to be called again when I consumed all the data > (servletInputStream.isReady becomes false) Generally this sounds OK. When you call ServletInputStream.isReady() and it returns false, that should trigger the container to call onDataAvailable() when more data is available to be read. If you return from onDataAvailable() and ServletInputStream.isReady() is still true the container won't call onDataAvailable() again. You'll be responsible for calling it when you're ready to read more. > That way, I could implement back pressure on the browser as long as my > servlet has not finished its work with the actual chunk > > But if I do that, neither onDataAvailable() nor onAllDataRead() is called > again. Again, a code sample would be helpful. Debugging non-blocking IO is tricky. If you can include a sample Servlet or test case, it would greatly increase your chance of getting feedback.
