Large *files*, perhaps, but using HTTP for static files is so 2001 ;).
The "streaming/push" requirement is more important to me. Just this
morning, one of my users ran a large report (which I thought had been
set up to stream its output, but isn't doing that now). He specifically
asked that it not wait to be completely-formed before rendering:
The GSR used to build immediately on the screen when choosing
"Current Trips". Now the entire GSR builds "off screen"...then
pops on the screen when it is completely built. This makes for
a lot of waiting. Can we get the GSR to build immediately on
the screen again?
