I still don't understand the +memory issue that stumped me yesterday, but rewrote the code to use a +simpler approach, which avoids the problem. Various other issues, and +testing it with large files, took all day. + +This is now merged into the `s3-aws` branch, so when that branch lands, S3 +support will massively improve, from the current situation of using a buggy +library that buffers uploaded files in memory, and cannot support very +large file uploads at all, to being able to support hopefully files of +arbitrary hugeness (at least up to a few terabytes). + +BTW, thanks to Aristid Breitkreuz and Junji Hashimoto for working on the +multipart support in the `aws` library. |
