+You can configure maximum [spooled file](https://docs.python.org/3/library/tempfile.html#tempfile.SpooledTemporaryFile) size per file uploaded with the parameter `max_file_size`:

+You can configure maximum size (on disk) of all files uploaded with the parameter `max_files_size`:

+```python
+async with request.form(max_file_size=1024*1024*1024):  # 1 GB limit per file

 !!! info
     These limits are for security reasons, allowing an unlimited number of fields or files could lead to a denial of service attack by consuming a lot of CPU and memory parsing too many empty fields.
