Re: How to count transfered kBytes in File-Download

Make sure you've run through and cleared all ob_buffers for any kind of non-HTML output, specifically for file downloads. You really don't want your web server buffering up a potentially large streamable content just because you've got ob_auto_start or whatever in php.ini, or some kind of main controller calling ob_start() or whatever. I know a lot of folks swear by ob_start and its benefits, but I mostly find it annoying as a general "solution"... Didn't even think of that, as I only use ob_start() when I *really* want it, not as a general fix-up.
