Can't the Ext code just use these to send large blocks?
StartChunkedResp(int code, const char *desc, const char *header_to_add);
ChunkResp(const char *body, long long bodylen);
No, because chunked responses don't define the final filesize and many clients (like the CERNBOX client) don't accept that. This is used for RESTAPI implementations where the response size is not known upfront. Also they involve parsing of the response on client side.
