fpassthru question

In our current file transfer scheme we are using fopen and fpassthru to
provide the user with a downloadable file from a remote location (other than
our servers). My question is, when using this method does our server
experience the load of the file transfer/download even though we're sort of
an "in between link"?

Yes, of course, thats what the name of the function says: pass through
my own server ;)
