Is it possible to provide an alternative to HTTP persistent connections?

No. Other than WebSocket, there is no other way to achieve reasonably-performant data transfer. Traditional long polling would technically work, but it would be very slow.

> I want to use guacamole through a corporate proxy that intercepts _both_ http and https connections.
> (https: by supplying local root certificate to user, so https endpoint is on proxy server)
> My issue with this kind of proxy is, that a http/https request must be completely finished towards proxy before it is forwarded to the guacamole client.
> Question:
> Is it possible to provide an alternative to HTTP persistent connections?
