We tried to get rid of commons-fileupload in favour of Servlet API for our project where we disable multipart and use streaming (not to store files on the disk). And it looks like Servlet API doesn’t provide a convenient way of streaming the attachments (like commons-fileupload does) so in the end we concluded that we need to implement something similar to what we get from commons-fileupload OR to wait for version commons-fileupload:2.0.
