During this year's Southwest Fox conference, during Scott Rindlisbacher's session, he was discussing generating very large JSON output that exceeds 16mb as part of his application using REST JSON services. The issues raised where two-fold:

• Output over 16mb would fail
• Large output was too slow to travel to the client

My first thought was that I had addressed the >16mb issue previously, but after some initial testing it's clear that that was not the case!.

During the conference I spent some time to create a solution to this problem and Web Connection can now serve content >16mb. If you're on Web Connection 8.0 you can pick up an experimental update if you want to play around with this here:

• Web Connection Experimental (v8.1)
• This has been updated in Web Connection 8.1 as a new feature

Here's a longer blog post that goes into detail on how this was accomplished:

• Making Web Connection Work with Response Output Greater than 16mb
