client async is not very async

[nicferrier]

I am trying to implement a proxy with http-kit but it seems the client is not very async, only the connection?

I'm doing something like this:

(http-client/get
                 url
                 {:as :stream}
                 (fn [{:keys [status headers body error]}]
                   #_(pp/pprint
                      {:request url
                       :response [status headers body error]})
                   (a/>!! ch [status headers body error])))

but the body is returned as an inputstream but an input stream that has been fully read.

What I want is to read it as I go, sending the necessary chunks.

Is there a way to do that?

This is [http-kit "2.1.19"] and Leiningen 2.6.1 on Java 1.8.0_25
