Disable Recieving Buffer in Firefox (or other browsers)

Question

I got trouble with web browsers buffering (not chaching).

I call this php script :

sleep(5);
echo \'1st step\';
echo (str_repeat(\' \',256));
sleep(5

Oh, I guess I need to make the answer an answer, not a comment, so you can accept it.

The HTML5 charset sniffing buffer size is 512 bytes. So the response needs to either have 512 bytes of padding or set a charset (via <meta> tag or HTTP header).
