What we tried is a count so it adds up the matches after each chunk. Once
the count of "keywords" is satisfied, it spits a meta refresh to the
client store. Problem is the client gets "some" of the request, then boom
they get a refresh to an ACL blocked URL. This is such a bad hack.

It most likely will leak memory now, because we're no longer
storing/cleaning up the data read in from the web server.

This sounds like the better way to do it. Are you guys planning on
something similar, or should I go ahead and just do it??
