You're best bet would be to put a proxy cache in front of Zope. Zope's not 
very efficient at serving big static files like this compared to Apache or 
squid.

I think it would be nice to be able to control cacheability of certain 
objects. However it smells like a YAGNI, especially with good front end 
caches that can take care of it.
