Bug description:  Apache PHP Module cannot seem to handle large amounts of output

Note: this seems to be the same problem as #14222, but I can't seem to
append stuff to someone elses bug so...

This is something I first noticed when I upgraded from XP RC1 to WinXP
Final, when using PHP 4.0.6.  I upgraded to 4.1.0 today, and it doesn't
solve the problem.

The php apache module doesn't seem able to handle outputting moderate to
large sized pages.

I have been able to reliably reproduce the problem with the following
script:

<?PHP
set_time_limit(900);
for ($i = 0; $i<1000000; $i++){
print "This is line number " . ($i+1) . "<br>";
}
?>

Viewing this page with internet explorer causes it to go into an almost
endless loop of relaoding the page.  It will display the first few 'this
line is number...' and then will reload the page over and over.  On some
sessions IE will eventually show it's 'The page cannot be displayed' page,
and sometimes it will just reload indefinitly.

Viewing this page with Mozilla/Netscape doesn't have the same effect. 
Mozilla doesn't go through the reload loop, but will not show the page as
it should either.  There will be unexplained (no errors) jumps in
numbers/missing output such as:

This is line number 2368
This is line number 2369This is line number 2517
This is line number 2518

But the errors in output don't occur in the same spot each time.  And
evenutally (well short of 1,000,000 lines) the output will just stop with
no error,  often in mid line.

I have found that adding 'flush();' just after the 'print "This is line...'
seems to fix the problem.
