Thanks :)
You're correct about blocking inputStreams, but I actually need Tomcat to write a multipart
*response*, on an OutputStream (the reading side is on the client, and our client-side programmers
will manage it without blocking).
I wondered whether I'll have to hand-code it (manually output the headers, etc), or is there
some utilities on Tomcat/apach.
Thanks anyway :)

Not in Tomcat 6. The risk of using any utilities out there, is that they will want to block
on inputstream.read until the entire request
body has been read, and I suspect that's not what you want.
