Flushing

[Oskar <ok...@centrum.cz>]

Hi,
I have script that is doing some time consuming operations hence have set $|=1 to disable buffering. It works correctly in command line but when I run it as cgi it does buffers everything and flushing does not work. After reaching timeout limit it displays server error. I have apache 1.3
Does anyone here has suggestion how to prevent it (other then increasing the timeout limit because it then returns 404 to client)?
Thanks Oskar
