a step forward by writing a "high performance reverse proxy" in python, that does HTTP POST requests instead of streaming websockets (requiring an additional SSL negotiation for each request, along with the additional payload overhead)...

What could possibly go wrong?!

However, some of us have already managed to get up our own "condensers", and I've even been testing it through my alpha-level C++ reverse websocket proxy. So far, votes go through in a second, and it's the only way I managed to get this comment through on my first try...! :D
