Hi, The notes for deploying Galaxy in production using Apache with mod_proxy advise serving static content from Apache. Is there a good reason not to do the same for <galaxy_home>/database/files?

There are lots of great reasons *to* do the same. But Apache needs to communicate with Galaxy to check security and map links in the interface to underlying disk files. This can be accomplished with mod_xsendfile, and is explained in "Sending files using Apache" here: http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/Config/ApacheProxy --nate
