I've written an http proxy using twisted. It works fine, except when

The handleStatus, handleHeader and handleEndHeaders all get called. Then
the process just hangs for 10+ seconds (presumably timing out). Then
handleResponseEnd gets called (never calling handleResponsePart).
All of this is expected, except for the hanging part. Anyone have any ideas
what's going on here?
204 is "No Content". Quoting the RFC:
The 204 response MUST NOT include a message-body, and thus is always
terminated by the first empty line after the header fields.
This, despite the fact that a 204 response may include a content-length
header with a non-zero value. Make sure you're handling this properly.
