I'm not sure what you're saying here. Which do you agree with: a) size of data represented by a brigade is limited only by apr_off_t b) httpd does use brigades representing large amounts of content e.g. containing FILE or CGI/PIPE buckets c) if you loop through all the buckets in a brigade calling read() on every one, you map all the data represented by the brigade into RAM d) writing filters which use RAM proportional to content size is bad joe
