replicate attachments without Base64 encoding
---------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-163
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-163
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Database Core
Reporter: Adam Kocoloski
Priority: Minor
CouchDB currently replicates attachments by inlining them in the JSON
representation of the document. This puts a load on the DB in the case of
large attachments. It might be possible to avoid inlining attachments by
a) adding a {new_edits, false} equivalent option in the standalone attachment
API, or
b) accepting a multipart format that would allow JSON docs and binary
attachments to be transmitted in one shot, or
c) something I haven't thought of yet
