Comment (by benoitbryon):
For the record, http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-downloadview is a
third-party tool designed for the use case explained in this ticket:
register some "download view", decorate it (i.e. perform some actions with
Django), then use X-SendFile headers to let the webserver deal with the
serving.
As of 2012-12-04, only Nginx's X-Accel-Redirect is supported, but other
servers could easily be added.
