Title: How do Flickr, Youtube and other high traffic websites handle file uploads? I am mostly interested to know what they do on the server side.<p>I might be mistaken, but I read PHP might not be great at being a daemon to handle file uploads due to memory leaks. Is this true? Is Python or Java a better choice? How do you handle your file uploads?<p>I appreciate any help in pointing me to a better solution.
