+
+<summary>
+ <p>This module provides the ability to buffer the input and output
+ filter stacks.</p>
+
+ <p>Under certain circumstances, content generators might create
+ content in small chunks. In order to promote memory reuse, in
+ memory chunks are always 8k in size, regardless of the size of the
+ chunk itself. When many small chunks are generated by a request,
+ this can create a large memory footprint while the request is
+ being processed, and an unnecessarily large amount of data on the
+ wire. The addition of a buffer collapses the response into the
+ fewest chunks possible.</p>
+
+ <p>When httpd is used in front of an expensive content generator,
+ buffering the response may allow the backend to complete
+ processing and release resources sooner, depending on how the
+ backend is designed.</p>
+
+ <p>The buffer filter may be added to either the input or the
+ output filter stacks, as appropriate, using the
+ <directive module="core">SetInputFilter</directive>,
+ <directive module="core">SetOutputFilter</directive>,
+ <directive module="mod_mime">AddOutputFilter</directive> or
+ <directive module="core">AddOutputFilterByType</directive> directives.</p>
