Phil, HTTP is not the ideal transport for transferring a hundred files of 100 MB each. I am not a native english speaker so I might understand things wrong or maybe it is just morning without my matte (<-- delicious brazillian native beverage with a shot of lemonade). So let us assume two scenarios:
* 100 files of 100 MB each. If you try to do this with a single HTTP request, unless it is a LAN, you will probably reach the socket timeout of the server or something similar. Your ideal transport for lots of large files is FTP, SFTP, SCP or some custom thing that breaks the files into edible chunks and uses a lot of requests. * 100 files totaling 100 MB (1MB per file). I would advise against doing this on a single HTTP request. I would loop transferring one file at a time or maybe 5 files at a time using HTTP. This is OK and should be fine with the server and the engine.
