No, not the server does it. It's the app that builds the MPI packages. So that app will produce several packaged files that are uploaded to the server and updates the db on the server accordingly.


The main reason behind this all is that the traffic for the server has to be minimized. Also the traffic for the enduser should be as low as possible. Some have traffic based accounts, keep that in mind. Let's not produce unneeded traffic on both sides.


Also the server should be as dumb as possible, all intelligence should be in the packaging/uploading app and in the mp client for the enduser. Processing power on server is too worthy than spending it on such stuff, if not needed.
