------------------------------------------------+------------------------
I'd like to see Django offer an in memory storage backend, similar to the
[https://github.com/waveaccounting/dj-inmemorystorage dj-inmemorystorage]
third-party package.

I have found this package useful in speeding up tests that deal with file
storage, but it appears to be unmaintained.

comprehensively
