Two things to do: 1) ensure your application has the filename nph-something, ie it generates all its headers and thus the server does not need to buffer it all up to determine the content length 2) If you are already doing that, then do an fflush (or equivalent in other langages) every so often. -- Chris Lilley, Technical Author +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Manchester and North HPC Training & Education Centre | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Computer Graphics Unit, Email: Chris.Lilley@mcc.ac.uk | | Manchester Computing Centre, Voice: +44 161 275 6045 | | Oxford Road, Manchester, UK.
