+Streaming file uploads.
+-----------------------
+
+File uploads will be read into memory by default. This works fine for
+small to medium sized uploads (from 1MB to 100MB depending on your
+setup and usage). If you want to support larger uploads you can enable
+upload streaming where only a small part of the file will be in memory
+at any time. To do this you need to specify the ``FILE_UPLOAD_DIR``
+setting (see the settings_ document for more details).
+
+See `request object`_ for more details about ``request.FILES`` objects
