Re: server overload: what should I look for?
Uploading and downloading such gigantic files through PHP/TXP… not a good idea, IMHO.
I’d use FTP for upload and direct links to the uploaded files to bypass TXP. Much more efficient.
The webhost probably has some limitations in the webserver itself for maximum execution time. For good reason, I might add, because it reduces the effect of runaway scripts.

Re: server overload: what should I look for?
Thanks, I already explained to the client how he can use FTP or upload directly in the Plesk interface.
The webhost probably has some limitations in the webserver itself for maximum execution time.
Hmm… the webhost was the one who suggested the upgrade of the PHP settings… also the client has always been able to upload files up to 20 or 30MB, so he doesn’t really understand why he can’t do that anymore. But I’ll try and convince him to keep using FTP.
Edit: you can move this to Previous troubles I suppose. And thanks again.
