#3 Large attachment support really poor

[Byrne Reese]

When one tries to attach large files (> 150MB)using
soap mime, the process grows to 2GB and then come
back with an out of memory error. 130MB files seem to
work, though the process grows pretty big.

The perl MIME module seems to read the entire file into
memory and pass that object from call to call and hence
the process grows. Essentially, the stack is big.

My work around was to use exec a Java program (using
Axis) and send the file accross.
