Many http servers aren't made for uploading Gb of data. If memory serves me correct, Apache http server will store the whole upload in-memory because it's handle-mechanism may need to restart parsing of the incoming request (including the 2gb of data) at any time.
I don't know about other http-servers. If I were facing such a problem, I would look at some upload-manager solution becuse as data size grows, the need for restarting of partial upload (and download) becomes more important. See apache mod_xsendfile for some discussion on this. If you can't find an upload manager, hack one. We all need one :) /Martin 2012/2/3 Timuçin Kızılay <[email protected]> > I'm trying to make file upload in my application. > uploading small txt files is ok but uploading big files is a problem.
