I have nginx 1.0.5 + php-cgi (PHP 5.3.6) running. I need to upload ~1GB files (1-5 parallel uploads must be). I trying to create uploading of big files through ajax upload. Everything is working but PHP eating a lot of memory for each upload. I have set memory_limit = 200M, but it's working up to ~150MB size of uploaded file. If file is bigger - uploading fails. I can set memory_limit bigger and bigger, but I think it's wrong way, cause PHP can eat all memory. I use this PHP code (it's simplified) to handle uploads on server side:
$input = fopen('php://input', 'rb');
$file = fopen('/tmp/' . $_GET['file'] . microtime(), 'wb');
while (!feof($input)) {
fwrite($file, fread($input, 102400));
}
fclose($input);
fclose($file);

Anybody knows the way to reduce memory consumption by PHP? Thanks.
There's a hack, which is about faking content type header, turning it from application/octet-stream
to multipart/form-data
. It will stop PHP from populating $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA. More details https://github.com/valums/file-uploader/issues/61.
Have been in the same shoe before and this is what i did split the files into different chunks during the upload process.
I good example is using [1]: http://www.plupload.com/index.php "pulpload" or trying using a java applet http://jupload.sourceforge.net which also has resume capability when there are network issues etc.
The most important thing is that you want your files uploaded via a web browser there is noting stopping you from doing so in chunks
