HTTP upload can be used without any Javascript or anything.

FTP upload and HTTP upload do the same on a network view.
They send data over a socket.
If one is faster than the other than there is a serious quirk on either the
server or the client ... or both :)

nope

as fast as anything else.
And FTP is farest away from being uncomplicated.
It is a HUGE mess on the protocol level, and inherently insecure.
