This is an example.

I tried this below code but it blocks mongrel until the whole file is 
read which is over 500 MB.

  def download
    
send_data(open('http://mirrors.gigenet.com/ubuntu/intrepid/ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso').read,
    :filename => 'ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso' ,
    :type => 'application/force-download',
    :disposition => 'attachment')
  end
