I found myself in a simular situation recently re. RMagik [I def intend 
to go back and resolve it tho] - in our case tho we were preprocessing 
the files [i.e. batchs of thousands of files], zipping them up and 
sending to ROR. Since the preprocessing was external I used the python 
PIL library:

Anyhow an option..
