         PARTIAL-BUFFER2
         - Partially buffers the first xKb to disk. Once that has buffered, the the 
           result is streamed to the user. This will allow for most errors to be caught
           early. 
           
         BUFFER
         - stores the entire response in memory first, before sending it off to
           the user (may run out of memory)

         SPEED
         - outputs directly to the response (and cannot recover in the case of an
           error)

         FILE
         - outputs to the local filesystem first, before sending it off to the user
