Description: The Occurrence download file is not streamed through Varnish.  Varnish gets the file from the backend and then delivers it to the client.

This uses a lot of memory in Varnish, and concurrent downloads of large files are bringing the portal down.

Enabling streaming on Varnish for this one request looks like a plausible solution.
