Hello,

I am implementing an avatar server which handles http request and sends several pictures (avatars) in multi-part response. It works but the whole response should be placed into HttpResponse object (containing IoBuffer) before sending it to network. This causes constant garbage allocation.

I have found the following discussion from Feb 2008:
http://markmail.org/message/dkoidsnvazm337ng#query:asyncweb%20chunked+page:1+mid:dkoidsnvazm337ng+state:results

"
Special care needs to be taken to ensure that we can handle LARGE responses without loading the entire request into memory. We also need to provide an elegant way to deal with chunked-encoding in an event-driven fashion.

Are there any changes somewhere in asyncweb code or maybe any plans to support it?

Thanks
