This already works in the case you get the data from the proxy backend. It does
not work for local files that get cached (the scenario Niklas uses the cache
for). The reason it does not work currently is that that a local file usually is
delivered in one brigade with, depending on the size of the file, one or more
file buckets.
For Niklas purposes Colm's ideas regarding the use of the new Linux system calls
tee and splice will get handy 
(http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/apr-dev/200604.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED])
as they should speed up such things.
