I'm not talking about Jetty being efficient or not, I know it is a very efficient server which is why I switched from Tomcat. The feature I need is for Railo to be able to tell Jetty to serve a specific file after it has located it via meta-information from the database. This works perfectly well using Nginx and <cfheader name="X-Accel-Redirect" value="/path/to/the/file" />, is there a similar thing I can do using Jetty standalone?
The "loading gigabyte files into RAM" thing I was referring to is using the <cffile> tag of Railo to spit out the contents.
