•
UseOutputStreamSize
(optional) determines the default output stream buffer size, in bytes, for data
sent to the client. If this parameter is not specified, the default is
8192
bytes.
•
flushTimer
(optional) determines the maximum number of milliseconds between write
operations in which buffering is enabled. If the interval between subsequent
write operations is greater than the
flushTimer
value for an application,
further buffering is disabled. This is necessary for status monitoring CGI
applications that run continuously and generate periodic status update reports.
If this parameter is not specified, the default is
3000
milliseconds.
•
ChunkedRequestBufferSize
(optional) determines the default buffer size, in bytes, for “un-chunking”
request data. If this parameter is not specified, the default is
8192
bytes.
•
ChunkedRequestTimeout
(optional) determines the default timeout, in seconds, for “un-chunking”
request data. If this parameter is not specified, the default is
60
seconds.
If there is more than one
Service
-class function, the first one matching the
optional wildcard parameters (
type
,
method
, and
query
) is executed.
For more information about the
UseOutputStreamSize
,
flushTimer
,
ChunkedRequestBufferSize
, and
ChunkedRequestTimeout
parameters, see
“Buffered Streams,” on page 334. The
UseOutputStreamSize
,
ChunkedRequestBufferSize
, and
ChunkedRequestTimeout
parameters also have
equivalent
magnus.conf
directives; see “Chunked Encoding,” on page 286. The
obj.conf
parameters override the
magnus.conf
directives.
By default, the server sends the requested file to the client by calling the
send-file
function. The directive that sets the default is:
Service method="(GET|HEAD|POST)" type="*~magnus-internal/*"
fn="send-file"
NOTE
The
UseOutputStreamSize
parameter can be set to zero in the
obj.conf
file to disable output stream buffering. For the
magnus.conf
file, setting
UseOutputStreamSize
to zero has no
effect.
