The RLimit* set of directive can define resource limitations in apache. There is also aSendBufferSize directive but haven't used that so can't comment. According to the situation that you describe perhaps saving the file first isn't the solution either.

Right now I am genereating the file offline and using a hyperlink, but that creates double the disk I/O. It reads some files (which the big file is based on), writes the big file, and reads the big file (to deliver it when the user clicks the hyperlink). If I could just create the file and deliver it as I create it, I would save the write/read to/from disk of the big file.
Output buffering is off in php.ini: output_buffering = Off
So that does not seem to be it. Maybe the problem should be address on Apache instead of PHP? Thanks, Juan

Hi Juan,
What you can do is to switch off output buffering. If it is a really large file you might want to generate the file offline and deliver it using the more conventional hyperlink.
all the best
