Description Julian Reschke 2014-02-11 07:35:37 UTC 
It appears that HEAD requests are slow (for some value of slow); maybe they time out because something is waiting for the payload?

Reproducible: Always

Comment 4 Julian Reschke 2014-03-12 21:49:39 UTC 
The comments in the code are somewhat misleading because RFC 2616 is obsolete.

That being said: thanks for fixing this.
