I know that it's possible(and arguably best practice) to use Apache to download large files efficiently and quickly, without passing them through mod_perl. However, the data I need to download from my application is both dynamically generated and sensitive so I cannot expose it to the internet for anonymous download via Apache. So, I'm wondering if mod_perl has a capability similar to the output stream of a java servlet. Specifically, I want to return bits and pieces of the file at a time over the wire so that I can avoid loading the entire file into memory prior to sending it to the browser. Currently, I'm loading the entire file into memory before sending it and
