If I pass a $_FILES to an object by value. Does it create a copy of the actual posted files as well?
In other words if I post a 2MB file to save.php and in turn pass $_FILES to an object $file->fileis($_FILES); Does that create 4MB of data in memory?
$_FILES is a super global. You really shouldn't have to pass it anywhere... It doesn't contain the actual file, just information about the file. IE. size name tmp_name type
So if you do make a copy if it, you aren't copying the actual file that was uploaded, just an array of information.

And the uploaded file is not kept in memory but in temporary file: $_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name']
