Slow transfers in Jetty with chunked transfer encoding at certain buffer size

Question

I\'m investigating a performance problem with Jetty 6.1.26. Jetty appears to use Transfer-Encoding: chunked, and depending on the buffer size used, this can be very

Answer 1

Yes, Jetty will default to Transfer-Encoding: Chunked if the size of response cannot be determined.

If you know the size of response that what its going to be. You need to call resp.setContentLength(135*1000*1000*1000); in this case instead of

resp.setBufferSize();

actually setting resp.setBufferSize is immaterial.

Before opening the OutputStream, that is before this line: OutputStream outStream = resp.getOutputStream(); you need to call resp.setContentLength(135*1000*1000*1000);

(the line above)

Give it a spin. see if that works. Those are my guesses from theory.
