Hi Sebastian,
anybody knows why I can't make an upload of a
resource of about
400 MB to a wiki supported by a smallwiki?
wow, I wouldn't try to do this with SmallWiki, since all the data is
stored within the image file in the current implementation. I would
suggest to put it somewhere else and link it from SmallWiki.
The uploads progress for some minutes until the
error page is
shown into the web browser.
I suspect that is due to a timeout of the web-browser. The streams in
Smalltalk are not particularly fast and uploading such a file
requires some decoding and copying around of a huge amount of data.
SmallWiki 2 will come with some better support for huge files (stored
outside the image), but it doesn't make the streams any faster of
course.
Cheers,
Lukas
