But there has to be something else, because in streaming I want a
chunked response that should start sending chunks to the client as
soon as possible.
If the back server sent just 200 bytes in the first chunk, I want
those 200 bytes compressed and forwarded to the client exactly now. In
particular there's no Content-Length computed.
