$OUTPUT_AUTOFLUSH
If set to nonzero, forces an fflush(3) after every write or print on the currently selected output channel.
This is mostly used for CGI scripts, so that you can print instantly to the screen without using the buffer... which will print to the screen once it is filled or the output channel is closed.
Also nice for low-volume log files, so that you get your output in the log instantly instead of waiting for the aforementioned buffer to fill up.
