do the server's reply to you have a content-length header?
if so .. this is probably what is holding up the request in the server.


Yah, I was going to guess it was probably the C-L filter.  But I thought
we had logic in the C-L filter to avoid buffering "too much".
No, there is no C-L header. The complete filter looks like so:

sub handler {
        # Get the filter object
        my($f) = @_;
        # Only done on the FIRST pass of the filter
        unless($f->ctx)
        {
                $f->r->headers_out->unset('Content-Length');
                $f->ctx('');
        }
        return Apache::DECLINED;
        
} # handler
Apache::DECLINED tells modperl to just call pass_brigade unmodified.
