[PHP] UpLoading Large Files? From: Henrik Hudson (rhavenn <email protected>)
Date: 08/31/01

Afternoon List-

I have been burrowing through archives and newsgroups for awhile now and
have been trying to find some info on a better way to upload files from a
browser then doing HTTP based uploads? Are there any?

My system: PIII 750, 128MB RAM running FreeBSD 4.2 and Apache 1.3.20,
PHP 4.0.6

The normal load average is very low (usually 95%+ resources free), but when
I start the HTTP load the single http process slowly makes its merry way to
98% CPU util or so. Additional PHP based requests are slow, while html
requests are fine. I was also reading that large http file requests are
inherrintly slow and have troubles. Details on this?

I guess my question is, is uploading large file (15MB+) over the internet a
viable thing to do using a HTTP upload method? and are there ways of
keeping the process utilization down? That's probably BSD dependant, but
thought I'd throw it in :)

Thanks!

Henrik
