>    Affects Versions: 0.14.0-beta3
>         Environment: Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS
> curl 7.22.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.22.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1 zlib/1.2.3.4 libidn/1.23 librtmp/2.3
> Python 2.7.3 and Python 3.2.3
>            Reporter: Brian Metzler
>            Priority: Critical
>
> When running driver.container.download_object(), it attempts to get the metadata of the object by using 'curl -X HEAD', instead of 'curl -I' or 'curl --head'.  curl does not properly handle HEAD requests with -X HEAD, as it still attempts to download the full file.
> Just turn on debugging, and check out the time it takes for a standard curl -I versus curl -X HEAD.
