Ben, But wouldn't the file be "written" to physical memory? And if so, you could not guarantee that the OS isn't caching part of the file in the Swap (Unless I'm misunderstanding). Still, it might be enough to check off his requirement. I suspect they won't want the web server to touch the file at all - memory or disk notwithstanding :)
