Using hgWillSendMySelf I noticed the proxy server immediately connects the client to the server and the connection is kept open as long as I'm sending data. If the proxy server does the same for the "long HTTP post" it would provide a very valuable tool for what I need. If it doesn't work I'll simply use as many HTTP posts as necessary. And if it makes any difference, for this part of my application I control both the "client" and the "server"; It's the potential proxy in the middle I'm not controlling. I need to use HTTP to make sure it works through the proxy. On a different note, how do programs like "zebedee" provide a TCP/IP tunnel through a HTTP proxy? I understand how the "downstream" part works, but how about the "upstream" part?
