> When using a server intercept plugin, if the plugin is unable (for whatever reason) to inject a Content-Length header, we perform chunked encoding on the body. This turns out to be pretty slow, I'm seeing at least 5-8x slowdown doing this chunking, vs simply setting a CL: header.
> The reason I'm filing this is because for certain server intercept plugins, such as an fcgi plugin, this could be bad for performance. I can see that there would be some overhead doing the chunking, but 800% seems very steep.
