It's defaulting to text/html since it's not actually sending a file. This is a section of the HTTP spec that I missed. http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html says that no entity headers (Content-* should be sent in a 304 instance)
I think I can have a patch by this evening. However, I've never seen this behavior before so I'll need for someone to be able to test this to see if this is actually the cause of the problem. Have we confirmed that the delay behavior happens in different browsers? I only see chrome above. -tim On Jul 19, 9:54 am, Jonathan Lundell <jlund...@pobox.com> wrote: > On Jul 18, 2010, at 4:10 PM, MikeEllis wrote: > > > > > > > Here's the Header info from the long fetch on base.css: > > > Request URL:http://192.168.253.105:8000/init/static/base.css > > Request Method:GET > > Status Code:304 Not Modified > > > Request Headers > > Accept:text/css,*/*;q=0.1 > > Cache-Control:max-age=0 > > If-Modified-Since:Mon, 14 Jun 2010 23:30:00 GMT > > Referer:http://192.168.253.105:8000/init/editproblem/index > > User-Agent:Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_3; en-US) > > AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.99 Safari/533.4 > > > Response Headers > > Connection:keep-alive > > Content-Type:text/html; charset=UTF-8 > > Date:Sun, 18 Jul 2010 22:32:09 GMT > > Server:Rocket 1.0.5 Python/2.6.1 > > Notice that this is Rocket's cached response.
