Ocelot is an API Gateway that also runs on ASP.

A key difference between API Gateways and general Reverse Proxies is that the former tend to be message based whereas a reverse proxy is stream based.
API网关和一般反向代理之间的一个关键区别是，前者倾向于基于消息，而反向代理是基于流的。

That is, an API Gateway will typically buffer every request and response message to be able to perform transformations.
也就是说，API网关通常会缓冲每个请求和响应消息，以便能够执行转换。

This is fine for an API Gateway but not suitable for a general reverse proxy performance wise nor for responses that are chunked-encoded.
这对于API网关很好，但不适合一般的反向代理性能，也不适合分块编码的响应。
