The upload demo at the top of this page demonstrates the browser flow. The numbers below are Smart CDN results from one WeTransfer preview-processing workload, not upload-speed benchmarks. About 60 ms Preview processing · not upload speed ### Average preview encoding time Reported for WeTransfer’s optimized Smart CDN preview workload in May 2024. Profiling, cache improvements, benchmarking six image resizers, and shortening the processing path drove both this result and the lower-compute result. This workload-specific result is not a service-wide guarantee. ≈10× Preview processing · not upload speed ### Less compute than WeTransfer’s earlier preview pipeline Reported as an order-of-magnitude reduction for the same preview result after the same combined optimization work. The result demonstrates one workload comparison, not a universal multiplier. 2 PB/month Preview processing · not upload speed ### Production preview volume WeTransfer Engineering reported this monthly volume for previews generated and served through Smart CDN. Read the methodology and attribution in the customer story. ### How to test your own workload ### Implementation checklist 1. Create one saved Template with fixed, reviewable processing Steps. 2. Upload a representative file with an official SDK or Uppy. 3. Store the Assembly ID and reconcile its final status. 4. Verify the actual output before marking it ready. 5. Repeat after a network interruption and a duplicate Assembly notification to confirm idempotent handling. ### Test workload speed * Separate browser upload time from queue and processing time. * Use the same source files, outputs, regions, and concurrency for every vendor. * Report medians and tail latency with the sample count and test date. * Include retries, failed outputs, storage export, and engineering time in the result.
