John, sorry for my ignorance. In S3TemplateDownloader.download, we are
only using HttpClient method to get the size and InputStream from a given
URL, then we are invoking S3 client library putObject(PutObjectRequest) to
download the content to S3. By using PutObjectRequest, I can set
ProgressListener to show download progress to end user. What is your
recommendation in this case?

Thanks
-min
