Convert Large Doc to base64

Question

Hello,

I would like to inquire about the best practice for converting a large PDF document to base64 (approximately 500 MB). Currently, when using the base64todoc node in the process model, the conversion takes a considerable amount of time to complete.

Could you please advise on the most efficient approach to perform this conversion and achieve the shortest possible processing time?

Thanks,

Can you expand upon your use case for doing this? A 500MB binary document converted to Base64 is going to be an incredibly heavy amount of text no matter what you do (hence the node processing burden you already describe), and i’m unclear whether any single solution is going to really make this any less burdensome.

What requirement are you doing this to accomplish? Is there any flexibility in your design that would allow you to consider other approaches for handling the document in question, for instance?
