upload-file-via-browser example does not work with Infura gateway and large files

[rori4]

I tested the example and Chromium crashed as the file was too big. The file that I tried to upload was around 400MB

EDIT:
The crash of the browser happens only when I try to use the public infura gateway.
({ host: 'ipfs.infura.io', port: 5001, protocol: 'https' });
On localhost it has no problem. The upload on infura works when I try small files but makes the browser crash when I try to use a big file.

Chromium version: Version 73.0.3683.86 (Official Build) (64-bit)

@rori4 are you sure this is a problem with big/small files and not just the issue described here #959?

I have also faced this issue. In fact, every service that uses infura has this issue. So, I had to shift to our own servers to resolve this issue. It works fine on our remote nodes(so, this doesn't seem to be an issue from ipfs side).
@rori4 can you shoot the error logs here? It may be the case that we are facing different issues.

There is not error whatsoever. The browser just crashes because it is out of memory. It gives the message "Aw, Snap!" for the Chrome browser. I really don't know where to find a crash log or something for this. Is there a way to log what caused the crash?

I'm going to close this as the ipfs.add code has been refactored to use the browser fetch API. Please open a new issue if you're still seeing this.
