The non-obvious technical details is that the response headers are sent before the body - as soon as you call `sendResponseHeaders`. The link is here to provide a better understanding of the workings of the new Handler. The headers are sent by calling `sendResponseHeaders` on the HttpExchange. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/5505
