Output buffering is handled by the Perl process, so you can use the $| variable to control that.

Beautiful!

Now there's just one more thing I'm trying to do: have an automagic way to capture STDOUT and send it asynchronously back to the client (using async_send() ).
This will allow using dancer to send output just like old cgi programs (and also execute external programs to generate big output).

Something like Tie::STDOUT - but it only captures STDOUT inside perl code (no external programs)
Or Capture::Tiny - but it seems to do buffering.

So I'm not a sure how to implement it yet.

You might be interested in this usage case:

It allows you to run async code in a fork, wait for it in a condition variable and send it asynchronously to the user.
It's based on Gordon's (ab)use of my insane additions to the send_file() function in Dancer.
