IIRC he benchmarked it and found that the majority of the time was being spent in Python's MIME-handling libraries -- we treat a file upload (correctly, IMHO) as a multipart MIME message and so use the standard libraries to parse it. There have been numerous attempts at patches which would change Django's file-upload handling, but so far all of them have been beset by various issues which keep them from being acceptable (for example, one did a very nice streaming upload, but was tied to an AJAX progress-bar widget). -- "Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct -- the best kind of correct." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
