I don't know a whole lot about NIO, but I doubt that it would make any difference. Since a given request is guaranteed to be serviced entirely by a single thread, there's not much opportunity for getting clever. But then again, even if there was, that's part of the container, and not something Commons FileUpload could do anything about. -- Martin Cooper > > Bye > Toby --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
