Hello,

I saw some posts on this but not many useful responses. Apologies if
there's already a known solution.

For a web-based backup, I need to send a large file, basically the
output of a tar process, to the browser. We have legacy Perl code
doing this now but I'd like to use Django. Is there a way to stream
this without reading the entire file into memory and writing it into
the HttpResponse object?

Or am I operating under a bad assumption? I see now that the docs show
a flush() method. Could I say, read 1024 bytes at a time, write() them
and flush() them without consuming large amounts of memory?

Thanks,
Mike
