I just wanted to follow-up on an issue that was first raised back in 2006 - are any options planned in nginx to allow users to turn off the buffering of file uploads ?

If so do you know the likely timeframe for this ?

Currently this is the only problem stopping me migrating over to nginx from pound.

See this link for backgound information: http://osdir.com/ml/web.nginx.english/2006-11/msg00017.html

There is still my nginx_upload_progress module. This is a hack that works only with 1 worker process. This also hasn't really been tested under load (and I have at least one user reporting a few crash that are being investigated (but couldn't be reproduced in the lab)), but YMMV.

You can find the source code and more information here: http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpUploadProgressModule

Let me know if you use this.
