Description
### Description
Add a new config like STATIC_PATH to serve static files from the CDN.
Right now, static files are served with gunicorn process, while this works, I find it unnecessary makes the webserver slower. Especially with more users it requires more gunicorn processes to handle.
### Use case/motivation
Require more web servers when under the load.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the webserver's static-file serving and configuration, then determine how a STATIC_PATH-like setting would route those files to a CDN. Done means static assets no longer consume gunicorn capacity.
