Do you have automatic output buffering or gzipping turned on in PHP? We set
$no_compress on downloads, but if you have it turned out at the PHP level
we can't override it (afaik).

After thinking about this during a few days of downloading things, I am
very much against an interim page by default, as it'd get really annoying.
I can see it for large files and zipped downloads, as long as we can arrive
at a reasonable definition of "large".

It might also be worth profiling view.php a little - Michael, any sense if
there's easy improvements to squeeze out of that code?

Any other opinions here?
