Well I was a little to fast with my conclusion. It only happens to files in the demo because they have a proper header, the virtual documents only give a 404 for a HEAD request.
The download is not of matter, the demo files are 500 bytes or so. And the server load stays as long as the client is connected. As I said, I was able to replicate this on two different machines and it is not limited to local access. cross tests between the machines also show this behaviour.
