Pros: - headers can be added at any time - buffer content can be post processed (gz compression) (xslt) - if an error occurs can avoid serving half a document Cons: - transmission of content doesn't start until preprocessor completes - slightly more overhead since content must be stored in memory until buffer is flushed.
