Hello.

I'm running a Django app served by uWSGI standalone. One of the views needs to 
send a file as a response, after doing some DB lookups. What is the most 
efficient way to send a static file to the client in this situation? I can't 
offload this to another server (X-Sendfile or X-Accel) since there isn't one. 
Should I use wsgi.file_wrapper? There is a patch 
(https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2131) under review which aims to add 
this feature.

Another question that I have is that, since I'm using the GEvent loop, will the 
worker be busy while sending the file to the client therefore starving the 
greenlets of that worker? I ask this because the Gevent monkey patching that I 
rely on will not affect the socket calls done by uwsgi while serving the file, 
therefore they may block.

Best regards,
André
