Does anyone know what is the minimum amount of data that the appengine http response can return?
I need the ***absolute*** minimum, counting both headers and data. Actually, I don't even plan to return any data, just 1 bit of information through (custom) status response codes like "201" (for OK) or "501" (for ERR). (as to why, short answer: GPRS transfer charged per byte, lots of requests) And since this is my custom app doing requests, I will not even use GET request, probably just HEAD, or even PUT (or anything that will help return the smallest amount of data). Also, any caching method (that could help) is possible for me (IfModified/ETag?). Doing a normal "GET / HTTP/1.0" request on some appengine app, I get this response headers: HTTP/1.0 200 OK Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Cache-Control: no-cache Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2009 05:00:48 GMT Server: Google Frontend Content-Length: 2906 Connection: Close I can see from appengine documentation that you can't modify Content- Length, Date and Server fields, so I suppose they can't be disabled either. Is there a way to disable them, possibly using custom HTTP commands (HEAD/PUT?)? Or just a simple redirection maybe? Are all those headers sent back when your script does a simple HTTP 302 redirect?
