Does the order matter when applying filters? Is there any significant difference in the order that server, request, and response filters need to be applied?

[dave]

generally, no - but the ordering will obviously be important depending on what type of effect you want to have - for example: adding a RequestTracing filter and a request Logging filter - if you want the request traces to be present when you log the request, you need to add it first

[dave]

does that make sense?

Yes, it does
