This is the first I'd heard of x-sendfile so I looked it up. It seems
to work to off-load work from the application server to the web-server
for serving large files.
In theory, there would be no real benefit from this in Rocket since
Rocket and web2py run in the same process. Serving a file from disk is
hardly a CPU-intensive process for a threaded system. The only benefit
would be to allow the GC to collect some of the request environment
stuff earlier. I can't see this having a measurable benefit.
For Apache and LightTPd, it makes a more sense when the app-server runs
in a different process.

I know I have been talking about x-sendfile alot lately....
Is there any reason that rocket should support it?

Ton's of references in epydoc. Those will be there as long as
wsgiserver.py is in the distro. Otherwise, run epydoc and sphinx.
Other than that, theres:
\examples\views\default\index.html:line 35
- change link tohttp://launchpad.net/rocket
\examples\views\default\who.html:line 77
- remove the reference so long as wsgiserver is not the default
- add "<li>Rocket Web Server developed by Timothy Farrell.</li>"

I made a mistake. Left references to cherry in some of the pages in
applications/example. Could you help me locate them and suggest
changes?

just wanted to feel the improvement, and I have to say Tim did his job
very well
web2py 1.76.5 vs 1.77.1 load test

and here is the great test script :)
