/**
 * Extension to the HTTPEndpoint to support streaming HTTP connections to connected
 * clients.
 * Each streaming connection managed by this endpoint consumes one of the request
 * handler threads provided by the servlet container, so it is not highly scalable
 * but offers performance advantages over client polling for clients receiving a steady,
 * rapid stream of pushed messages.
 * This endpoint does not support polling clients and will fault any poll requests
 * that are received. To support polling clients use HTTPEndpoint instead.
