--- Comment #15 from Faidon Liambotis <fai...@wikimedia.org> ---
No, an upload-by-url proxy is the wrong day to do it. If we want to copy files
within the upload.wm.org realm, then we should use efficient server-side copies
(e.g. Swift's X-Copy-From header), not go through the application servers and
upload-by-URL proxies.
Moreover, copying files internally seems wrong to me in general. It's probably
okay if it's a limited use case, but if it's something that's going to get
popular, then some other way of multiple reference to the same file should be
found, rather than having the same contents copied over and over in the media
storage backends.
