Description
Description
would be nice if the apache / apache2handler sapi got a apache_finish_request() like the fastcgi_finish_request() function. quoting the fastcgi_finish_request() documentation:
This function flushes all response data to the client and finishes the request. This allows for time consuming tasks to be performed without leaving the connection to the client open.

Research direction
Start by reading the existing fastcgi_finish_request() implementation and the Apache/apache2handler SAPI entry points; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Compare how the Apache SAPI can flush the response and finish the request, then identify the tests needed to demonstrate equivalent behavior and document what completion should guarantee.
