mod_xsendfile
mod_xsendfile is a small Apache2 module that processes X-SENDFILE headers registered by the original output handler. If it encounters the presence of such a header, it will discard all output and send the file specified by that header instead, using Apache internals including all optimizations like caching-headers and sendfile or mmap if configured. It is useful for processing script output of PHP, Perl, or other CGI programs.
