I'm currently using zope 2.3.3, apache 1.3.20, and fastcgi. However, I'm trying to support large http transfers, protected via a acl_user (passwords, expiration, etc.). Each download/transfer could be 20-50mb. I've tried using LocalFS as well as streaming out the data using RESPONSE.write(). However, it appears FCGIServer buffers the *entire* file before sending it out to the apache mod_fastcgi. This won't work for me, as it's a huge memory hog, plus there's a noticeable delay before the buffer is flushed out to apache. An alternative would be not put the large files within the zope process but as an external file. But I need to support passwords/expirations. Is there a better way to handle this? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks, Albert Ting (alt@sonic.net)
