> When running driver.container.download_object(), it attempts to get the
> metadata of the object by using 'curl -X HEAD', instead of 'curl -I' or 'curl
> --head'. curl does not properly handle HEAD requests with -X HEAD, as it
> still attempts to download the full file.
> Just turn on debugging, and check out the time it takes for a standard curl
> -I versus curl -X HEAD.
