Start Render Time

[jarrod1937]

Ok, chunked encoding works if i flatout disable mod_gzip:

I made the sleep for 10 seconds to rule out any sort of fluctuation. Though the weird thing is that i consistently see 300-400 ms cut off of my start render time simply by disabling gzip for the main html doc (without flushing any output):

I am not sure why this is, unzipping/uncompressing the file client side shouldn't be adding that much delay.
For now, i'm done tweaking for the night, we'll see if i can get both mod_gzip and chunk encoding working tomorrow. If not i may give mod_deflate a try, i believe its available even for older apache versions.
