Yeah, I've implemented HTTP on the client side including chunked
encoding,
but I was mainly curious about what Apache and Passenger make available.
Sounds like we have a way to go, and the Rack API is getting in the
way of
proper asynchronicity, and even chunked output (Response must respond to
each, but there's no way to say that the next chunk isn't ready yet).
Oh well.

Doesn't the Rack API make it impossible?
Rack can be handed an input stream of indeterminate length via
rack.input, so in theory the API does support it. That being said,
my blog entry was about Passenger's support for accepting incoming
requests with a chunked transfer encoding, so I'm not sure what
would be involved in chunking outgoing requests for the purposes of
speeding up page loads.
Hmm, ok. Anyhow, it sounds promising; does this mean that Passenger
apps can receive
partial data chunks, such as you might use in a COMET situation? I
guess there's no
real point unless Rack knows when to send partial output, but still...
