Due to the lack of the availability of per-object access permissions and query string authentication, downloads to users have to be mediated through an application. In Rails 2.3, it looks like you can ...
I am using django-storage's Mosso backend to store image files in the Rackspace CDN. However, I am facing very slow page loads due to the back and fourth of model.image_field.url lookups to the api. Does anyone know a good way to cache this value? ...
