Depends on your web server.

IIS implements HTTP file uploads by storing the file to memory.  CFFile then
uses the file from memory (and writes it to disk, if that is what you want
it to do).  So in this case, the maximum size depends directly on how much
available memory you have.

In our case, we have a IIS/CF server, with SQL2000 (small load) that has 512
Meg of RAM.  In optimum condiditions, we have shown that it can handle a 67
meg file.  This decreases over time though as SQL Server uses more memory.

Hope that helps.

Subject: How big a file can CFFILE work with


Does anyone have any rules of thumb for how big a file CFFILE READ can
safely work with?
