Well, I'm just doing a GET directly to the document_id + attachment:
http://localhost:5984/database/doc_id/attachment
Clicking on the attachment in Futon would have the same effect.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to work with some large attachments (around 1.5 GB).
When I go to download these (as a standalone attachment) the
CouchDB process grows in size by at least the size of the
attachment before the download starts. This implies that the
attachment is being loaded into memory entirely before being sent
to the client. Has anyone else seen this behaviour? Is this a bug,
or is there a configuration change I can make to resolve this?
I've tried disabling compression on attachments in case it's the
compression that's causing the problem.
I'm using 1.0.1.
What does your request look like?
The standalone attachment API does not buffer.
Cheers
Jan
