Im using the asp.net 2.0 fileUpload control on a live server.
Currently it is taking a very long time to upload files, and I'd like to know if you think these upload times are common with this control.
image size --> upload time
5kb --> a few seconds
175kb --> 16 seconds
650kb --> about 4 minutes
1.5 MB --> I quite after 8 minutes
So are these results common or is something clearly wrong here?
PS- I was the only user testing this server.
Thanks for any help.
If you are going across the internet then maybe...if you are using a host they could be limiting upstream bandwidth...not sure though.

Ugh, mixed units!
I'm going to assume you mean kilobytes and not kilobits.
It sounds like your < 200KB files are going through fine but your 650KB and above is causing a bottleneck.
.Net 1.1's file upload capability was havily bugged,. I'd have thought they'd have fixed it by 2.0 but I don't know for sure.
Check your server's resources as you are uploading. Have a look and see if it's hogging a lot of processor time and/or memory. I'd also defragment the hard drive whilst you're at it.
