: How RAM is used on CGI query? The user sends a file via HTML form <input type="file" ... /> CGI script, installed on the server, receives the file and, say, writes it down to the disk.

CGI script, installed on the server, receives the file and, say, writes it down to the disk. As simple as only possible.
As I understand, files, sent to the server via POST, are stored in the RAM on the Server, before they are written on the disk. (If I am not right - please, correct me).
The question is IF the file, that a user sends, weights 2GB and the server (just for example) has only 1GB of RAM on board? What will happen then?
Thanks!

I found an answer: the data is paged onto disk. So, there is no problems with CGI at sending vast data to server.
Thanks.
