Sometimes, the servlet engine can help you out -- either the message is so
short that it fits within the servlet engine's buffers (so it can set the
content length for you) or else the servlet engine supports chunked encoding
for you. Otherwise, you must explicitly set the content length to ensure
HTTP/1.1 persistent connections (and, of course, your client has to support
this as well).
