What is a 50MB ZIP file useful for?
A 50 MB ZIP is an infrastructure limit-testing file — representative of a large software distribution archive, a database export bundle, or a batch of media assets. Use it to verify that your upload endpoint uses multipart upload at the correct threshold, that extraction is fully asynchronous with progress reporting, and that disk quota limits are enforced during extraction. A 50 MB ZIP can expand to 150–200 MB of files — ensure your temp directory quota accounts for the uncompressed size, not the compressed size.
What's inside this file?
Generated by archive.py. Contains 80–120 files of mixed types. Total uncompressed size approximately 150–200 MB. DEFLATE level 6. The central directory lists 80–120 entries. This archive is within standard ZIP (not ZIP64) limits — the 4 GB ZIP64 extension is not needed. Extraction should be performed asynchronously in a worker with a disk quota enforcer.
