Conversation
The default file streaming method is still the PHP filestreaming method. However as this method does have the issue of hogging up resources that can be used by other PHP processes, the method can now be delegated to the Apache Web Server. When activated, the response will only contain a header entry that states that the Apache Web Server should serve the file and as such delegating. However as this requires an Apache Web Server with the mod_xsendfile extension enabled, it is not on by default and must be enabled using an environment variable.
