"Streaming" compression of output from mod_perl handler?

2002-02-18 Thread Nicholas Oxhøj
Hi I am looking for an Apache module which will allow me to compress the output of my mod_perl handler (a "native" handler, i.e. not running under Apache::Registry). But since my handler can potentially take a long time to finish, the output has to be compressed in a "streaming" fashion (or in

Like my previous question on object caching, this one is potentially a matter of style as well. When it comes to implementing expirations on session data, I've encountered two schools of thought on when is best to refresh the timestamp/expiration. In that the general idea of expiration is to di
