Hi again,
Different frameworks will probably not affect your upload speed. The web
server (regardless of framework) is not the main problem, but the network
speed, so regardless of which framework you choose in the end, it won't be
the bottleneck. The thing is your web server is probably not even in the
same country as you and the network connection will be the bottleneck for
all frameworks. Not even if you are on the same network, the framework
speed would be an issue.
But even so - you should probably think a bit more about design if you want
to upload 1GB files - the web server itself will first of all be busy
taking care of the files, and then you will need a very large harddrive to
store the files?
I think you should probably look into more useful use cases and see if the
framework is good for you in that regard.
Regards,
Andréas
