I am sure that no one on the App Engine team can comment on this but I just have to talk about it to get it off my chest cause it is a constant pain in my butt.
Many modern jpeg images will decompress to sizes over 1 megabyte, even those taken with the cheapest of point and shoot digital cameras. So people uploading images to your application that are few hundred kilobytes are too big to be resized to a thumbnail because when the image functions decompresses the jpeg it is greater than 1 megabyte and blamo! You get the too big error and your whole application re- initializes. I cannot begin to communicate how much of a bummer this is. I know that the product road map has and entry for "Raise request/ response size limits for some APIs" would this address this issue? If so, might we see it this year? If not can some one put some thought into how this might be a priority? Thanks for listening. -=Kelly p.s. I know I can implement a client side solution and am doing such, but I am not particularly fond of having to add more flash components to my site and I will never use a Java applet in a web page. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
