More efficient RFC 1867 uploads?

[John Timney \(Microsoft MVP\)]

The uoload limits is adjustable in machine.config if you have access to it,
yiu can probably override it in local web.config too, though I've never
tried it.

Incidentally, theres a huge thread on uploading huge files at [url]www.asp.net[/url] in
the HTTPModules discussion section

I can confirm that Web.Config will override the Machine.Config setting.

but that's not what he's asking here...

Has noone any ideas on how to pace incoming post data for a binary upload?
