Large Uploads about afamazons3manager HOT 6 OPEN

Running on a device with more memory I'm able to upload and capture the memory footprint. The zipped file is around 130MB. After calling putObjectWithFile the memory shoots up, roughly 3x the file size.

Stepping through what code I can:

• sendSynchronousRequest in setObjectWithMethod causes memory to shoot up to ~150MB
• request.HTTPBody = data; copies it and memory use is now ~280MB.
• letting it run after that, memory goes up to about ~500MB

It seems that uploading should use some kind of stream so that the whole NSData doesn't have to be loaded into memory. I found this, no idea if it is useful: http://stackoverflow.com/a/18352296

Use postObjectWithFile:... instead, which uses an HTTP body stream.

Hi Matt,
Sorry, should have mentioned that I've tried that. It transfers 32k, stalls and fails with a Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1001 "The request timed out."

Doesn't matter the file size.

postObjectWithFile:.. seems to stall and fail with error code -1001 for me as well.

I'm having the same problem too.

I'm having the same problem.
I am using only AFNetworking and I created POST exactly the same as in this link:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20551548/timeout-posting-to-s3-from-ios-using-signed-urls
Upload fails: Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1001

We never noticed similar problem from windows and browser apps - only mac fails.

Also found few similar problem on the web and stackoverflow- mulitpart fails with timeout when uploading large files.
Unfortunately I cannot find solution how to fix this.
