This is odd, your code should have been working, wsapi.common already calls :flush after every :write, if a flush method is available, and the FastCGI output object has a flush method (Xavante's does not, but it uses a naked socket, which should be unbuffered anyway). But you may need to change the configuration of your webserver, check this thread:
