this is more a programming question.

if i have, say, a CGI process or a PHP script or even a mod_perl handler.

what happens if the end user times out while i am sending them data? will the process receive SIGPIPE and die? or will the process keep writing data naively and it goes nowhere? can we safely assume that the PHP script/etc. will reach the end of its execution in all cases?

i seem to have read somewhere (but cannot recall where) that if using a PerlHandler, it's possible at any given time to figure out how many bytes you've successfully sent to the remote client. true or false?
