PHP Bug Type:     Unknown/Other Function
Bug description:  readfile needs too much memory

Description:
------------
I've got a big problem. I use the readfile function for share any files
over the webserver. I use it, because I need user authentication.
It works nice with small files.

Actual result:
--------------
The problem is that. PHP will load the hole file from the harddisc into
the memory. If I use the fpassthru function, the memory will be freed, but
PHP use the hole memory for buffering.
