Hi,

I'm using send_fd() to send relatively large files. Apache's Timeout is 
currently set to 60s and indeed, mod_perl aborts as soon as the minute 
elapses. (error msg: mod_perl: Apache->print timed out). 
However, it shouldn't do that, right? 

As ap_send_fd_length() does 8k chunking and uses a soft timeout, 
reset for each chunk, I would have expected that it would only abort if
it couldn't send 8k within a minute. This would also match Apache's Timeout
documentation saying "The amount of time between ACKs on transmissions of 
TCP packets in responses".

Any suggestions? 
Thanks,
Martin
