The commands start and use an output buffer, a chunk of memory that stores all 
the output on the server until the ob_flush, the buffer flush, function is 
called. You need to be aware that in high load situations this may adversly 
affect performance since it loads the servers memory, also be aware that you 
may hit a memory limit for large pages. This is server / OS depandant so you 
may want to read up on server documentation
