I guess I should have been more specific, I was looking for advice as to if the "enctype" attribute of the form tag introduces significant overhead in struts. I know that the struts request processor has to do some extra work to handle a multipart form. Is this overhead enough to imply that only html forms that include the file input element (upload data) should be multipart forms?
