Parallel Chunk Upload

[davidchase]

Hi,
I was wondering if this is possible or maybe planned to do parallel or multiple chunk uploads?

Possibly using web workers or something along those lines...

Thank you in advanced

It's should actually work as is now -- the simultaneousUploads parameter controls how many, well, simultaneous chunk uploads you want to run. I'll usually opt for 3-4 workers to boost speeds.

@steffentchr thank you for the quick reply :) , if i may ask did you notice significant performance gains when using multi chunk uploads with web workers?

@davidchase This blog post did some basic testing of that premise, so you may be able to use it as a starting point? http://kufli.blogspot.dk/2012/06/speedier-upload-using-nodejs-and.html

@steffentchr That blog post is definitely a good starting point, but I was hoping for something more in the lines of implementing web workers with your library or something along those lines... thank you
