Want to increase upload speed : php

Hello,


I am using php script to upload file.
some times if file size is too big(1GB) it takes too much time to
upload.
Can someone suggest me the way to increase upload speed.

thanks

PHP isn't what's slowing you down; it only gets involved once the file
has been uploaded.

gig) I think the choice of protocol is not going to be an enormous
help.

To the OP, there is nothing you can do in PHP to improve your
situation, the PHP script won't even start to execute until the file
upload is complete or fails. The only way to get faster uploads is to
fork out for a faster net connection, and for a faster net connection
for the server if that's not fast enough to keep up.

either: Any speed issues would be down to the FTP server versus the HTTP
server, which are both sucking bytes and pumping them into some form of
temporary storage via a TCP connection. However the web server may be
interpreting the data stream as it comes in. And PHP may do the same.

If the user is on ADSL, or another asymmetrical protocol, it will be far
slower to upload as well.

that ftp doesn't. So ftp would be more efficient and faster. Not much,
I grant you. But on a 1GB file it's possible it would be noticeable.

One thing i want to tell is that,
I have made following changes to php.ini file for application specific
purpose.

Upload_max_filesize=2047MB
post_max_size= 2047MB

I am uploading file to apache web server.
So what I should do now to speed up my uploading process (when file
size is 1GB or more)
