It's not that coldfusion can't handle bigger files (I used to work at a place that handled 10MB uploads daily without a hitch), it's that the code you wrote may not be able to handle it. It could also be the server processor may be below par for the job (more likely).
What is the code that you are using to process the data? What are the stats of your server? On Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 2:45 PM, Ryan J.
