I think FastCGI is buffering the upload, which is good I guess, just nice to know. I'll put a comment in the php manual. The deflate thing is a FastCGI bug, I searched the list and found a fix. I thought mod_fastcgi was dead (it didn't even compile on Apache 2.2). It looks like there was a release last year (after several years), so I'll take that and patch it. I have to remember what my other patches have been over the years! FastCGI is *the* way to run PHP, but I think Apache is not the platform for it anymore. Is the COMMET implementation on the client side long polling (reconnect) or does it stream using script tags? What goes on in the server? Does it push the buffer of blank data that WebKit requires? Is it a PHP daemon process running as a simple HTTP server?
