[mod_python] Memory error

I'm not really answering the question you've asked, but I've found
that using a browser to upload files larger than a few MB often causes
the browser to hang or disconnect (regardless of server technology).
It seems that some browsers are not designed to upload such large
files.

Perhaps you could upload these files via SFTP or FTP?
