sqlite :) ok let say for now it would be impossible on a db level, but
before i reach the impossible, i still need to parse the file to
prepare the chunks. How do i do that ? How do i get the chunks without
loading the hole file into memorie ?

    b = environ['CONTENT_TYPE'].split('boundary=')[1]
    data = search(b+r'.*?Content-Type: application/octet-stream\r\n\r
\n
(.*?)\r\n--'+b,t,DOTALL).group(1)
    data = data.encode('latin1')
