Yeah, that makes sense. IIUC setting "force" to false would have the same effect for the initial round of streaming, but since writePtr/flushPtr will be set in later rounds, no reply would be guaranteed. That might be good enough for the tests, but it seems a bit inconsistent. So, your patch is probably the way to go. -- Nathan Bossart Amazon Web Services: https://aws.amazon.com
