Writing in /tmp in Azure app service linux with django

Question

We have an Azure linux app service running django. When we upload a file to it that is greater than 2.5MB it written by default in the /tmp. When this happens we notice increase in response time from the app service before it eventually crash. Is there a restriction on writing in the /tmp for a linux web app? If so where can we write our temporary file? How could I make sure that the /tmp is in fact the issue? We don't want to increase FILE_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE value of django. We looked at this documentation but it doesn't talk of any issue on the tmp for linux.

Answer 1

Are you using a App Service Linux in "Code" mode or "Container" mode? That will help frame the answer.
