upload image on server using jsp

[lovinasd]

hi,
I have tried upload a a image from jsp to a servlet at the server side using the html file type and image class in java.but the speed is quiet slow.
CAn any one tell me how can i upload a file or image from client to server side i mean in terms of a image not a path so that the entire image can be stored in the database as blob.
I have tired dsaving using relative url and the speed is too slow.
CAn any one help
thanks

I am no expert;
you can write a code in your jsp to convert the image to a byte array and send it to the servlet for storage in the database as a blob(binary stream)

File file=new File(imagefile);
int len=(int)file.length();
byte[] buf=new byte[len];
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream(file);
fis.read(buf);

return buf;

I hope this is not too elementary
