That was your idea (and a good one).\r\n\r\nBut it's probably worth measuring to see what overhead it adds. It did require both passing in the database and making the whole thing `async`. \r\n\r\nJust timing the queries themselves:\r\n\r\n1. [Using `AsGeoJSON(geometry) as geometry`](https://alltheplaces-datasette.fly.dev/alltheplaces?sql=select%0D%0A++id%2C%0D%0A++properties%2C%0D%0A++AsGeoJSON%28geometry%29+as+geometry%2C%0D%0A++spider%0D%0Afrom%0D%0A++places%0D%0Aorder+by%0D%0A++id%0D%0Alimit%0D%0A++1000) takes 10.235 ms\r\n2. [Leaving as binary](https://alltheplaces-datasette.fly.dev/alltheplaces?sql=select%0D%0A++id%2C%0D%0A++properties%2C%0D%0A++geometry%2C%0D%0A++spider%0D%0Afrom%0D%0A++places%0D%0Aorder+by%0D%0A++id%0D%0Alimit%0D%0A++1000) takes 8.63 ms\r\n\r\nLooking at the network panel:\r\n\r\n1. Takes about 200 ms for the `fetch` request\r\n2. Takes about 300 ms\r\n\r\nI'm not sure how best to time the GeoJSON generation, but it would be interesting to check. Maybe I'll write a plugin to add query times to response headers.\r\n\r\nThe other thing to consider with async streaming is that it might be well-suited for a slower response. When I have to get the whole result and send a response in a fixed amount of time, I need the most efficient query possible. If I can hang onto a connection and get things one chunk at a time, maybe it's ok if there's some overhead.\r\n", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 0, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 0, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 749283032, "label": "register_output_renderer() should support streaming data"}, "performed_via_github_app": null} {"html_url": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1101#issuecomment-1105588651", "issue_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1101", "id": 1105588651, "node_id": "IC_kwDOBm6k_c5B5fGr", "user": {"value": 25778, "label": "eyeseast"}, "created_at": "2022-04-21T18:15:39Z", "updated_at": "2022-04-21T18:15:39Z", "author_association": "CONTRIBUTOR", "body": "What if you split rendering and streaming into two things:\r\n\r\n- `render` is a function that returns a response\r\n- `stream` is a function that sends chunks, or yields chunks passed to an ASGI `send` callback\r\n\r\nThat way current plugins still work, and streaming is purely additive. A `stream` function could get a cursor or iterator of rows, instead of a list, so it could more efficiently handle large queries.\r\n", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 0, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 0, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 749283032, "label": "register_output_renderer() should support streaming data"}, "performed_via_github_app": null} {"html_url": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1101#issuecomment-869191854", "issue_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1101", "id": 869191854, "node_id": "MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDg2OTE5MTg1NA==", "user": {"value": 25778, "label": "eyeseast"}, "created_at": "2021-06-27T16:42:14Z", "updated_at": "2021-06-27T16:42:14Z", "author_association": "CONTRIBUTOR", "body": "This would really help with this issue: https://github.com/eyeseast/datasette-geojson/issues/7", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 0, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 0, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 749283032, "label": "register_output_renderer() should support streaming data"}, "performed_via_github_app": null}
