FotoLOAD midi is done, tested and stabile
June 1st, 2008After some kicking and biting FotoLOAD – midi finally works nicely and stable on all 5 test servers. It was tested with photos up to 6MB and with 100 pics to upload at once and it finally works as it should. And even if server fails on some image or you internet connection blinks you can nicely continue where you dropped off. This week it will be used for real at first photo studio.
The last problem was that resampling of >3MB photo to a thumbnail crossed the RAM usage limit at some shared hosting providers but after we found out what was the problem for upload failing at the end quite simple solution was found. In short.. now we do imagecopyresized from (for example) 2000 X 2000 px to 350 X 350 px and then do imagecopyresampled to 100 X 100 px . If you look at the docs you will see why this uses A LOT less resources and gives the same quality at the end.
