If your data is in a single <table> element, you're generally out of luck: Browsers tend to wait to render tables until the entire table is available. For the record, the problem you're trying to solve is probably something like 'force rendering of partially complete HTML' or something along those lines. (The problem is not strongly related to HTTP or anything else.)
