Just to clear up, currently attachment PUTs without Content-Length headers are rejected. I think that we fixed the RAM buffering issue after all: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-189 (fixed) So if you know the length of the attachment, PUT should work for you no matter how big it is. -- Chris Anderson http://jchris.mfdz.com
