The request processing function stores the request on the disk if it is over a certain size. However, once the request has been uploaded, a function from Python's cgi module is called to parse the data into request.params. Not only does this lose some information about file uploads (which can only be recovered by re-parsing the request), but it also loads all data into memory.</div>

This module will place any uploaded files into files on the disk, and include regular request parameters to tell your Twisted server where these files are. It is also capable of putting limits in place on the size of uploaded files.</div>
