Have you given consideration to my idea of just stuffing .zip files into 
a directory when they are uploaded, and process them asynchronuously by 
a process that does nothing else? That would make it impossible to tell 
the uploader if we were happy with his data or not (but we could just 
put a log message in cases where something is broken). The advantage 
would be that, especially in times when the hardware is strained, you 
would not have tons of processes wanting to unpack their zipfiles.

I could easily provide a Perl upload script that just saves everything 
into a directory. That might or might not solve the upload size problem 
depending on wheter it comes from PHP or from Apache.

Bye
Frederik
