You've got a few options.

One is to (as Gabriel suggested) use lighttpd alongside Apache on the  
same physical machine.

The faster option -- and the one we use -- is to have two physical  
machines, and just mount the media directory onto the Django server  
using NFS.  This slightly slows down writes to file fields from  
Django, but drastically speeds up reads of media.
