Hi, this seems to be another good reason to put Squid in front of Zope. It handles byte requests by his own, loading the whole object from Zope at once. Regards Tino --On Mittwoch, 18. Juli 2001 16:26 -0500 "Kyler B. Laird" <laird@ecn.purdue.edu> wrote:

I'm not familiar with HTTP/1.1 "parts", but I am fairly confident that it's using byterange requests. I can see it request 32KB then make several other requests for different sizes. I tried eliminating the Accept-Ranges header in the response and other kludges, but it continued.
Some things to check for more info on Adobe workings... http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/3d76.htm http://www.adobe.com/support/techguides/acrobat/byteserve/byteservmain.h tml
Incidentally, we didn't notice this before 2.4 (but I didn't have all of my PDF tools installed then, so maybe the files weren't so large?).
