High memory usage

[Arthedian]

When I upload files to server it increases memory usage a lot even when I upload small files. Even when I close and reopen webpage, the memory usage is still high, even if i uploaded five small files on server. Is the problem on my side?? How can I Repair it? I didn’t change the example yet. I am using django 1.6 branch.

I think, it is done by scaling picture. I am talking about client-side RAM

Which browser? Is this memory consumption any worse than other websites that do this kind of scaling? Will the problem be the same at the upstream project by blueimp? http://blueimp.github.io/jQuery-File-Upload/

I dont know the comparison to other site.
this is with your server (http://blueimp.github.io/jQuery-File-Upload/)
Firefox - High Usage is only when I add file, than its as ussual
Chrome - when i uploaded 8 file the comsuption of Ramn was 430 MB
Its not that high like in my local server so its weird, I am trying to upload 5k x 7K pixels images, so i think its problem with that.
And with my server the deleting of image from server doesnt help.

I think its bug in Chrome, because in FF its OK (its only on the beginning). I think the way out from this situation is to create on upload an resized small image on the server. Is it possible?

look at this earlier fork https://github.com/theskumar/django-jquery-file-upload.
he implemented in commits 8b1d396 & ef36a6d such resizing functionality.

I tryed to implement it here, but without success, when i upload I only get Internal error, does anyone know why? Arthedian@c821880

Did you installed django-imagekit and PIL or Pillow?

[Arthedian]

yes i have Pillow and django-imagekit by pip

[Arthedian]

i done this yeah!!!! in this commits: Arthedian@c821880 Arthedian@6b676a1 Arthedian@63354a8 Arthedian@ed4c6d2 . You can add it to this project if you want (only Django 1.6 branch), but now i have another problem. When i move this to my project, where i change the URL for list of already uploaded images? (default is "upload/view/")

Great to see that you got it working!

The server is doing the url matching based on the contents of the 'urls' files. You have a project level 'urls' and an app level urls in 'fileupload/urls'. This is pretty standard Django. However I don't remember if we are hardcoding the url in the javascript files. You could find out by grepping for /upload/view in the javascript files.

[Arthedian]

it is hardcoded in main.js

@Arthedian Ok. Thanks for keeping your implementation in the open, so we can merge it or be heavily influenced if or when we want this functionality.
