Why not -s filename assuming you store it in a file system?
Because I would like to avoid too big files
Ok, so your question actually is: how do I avoid the uploading of big
files:
$CGI::POST_MAX
If set to a non-negative integer, this variable puts a ceiling on the
size of POSTings, in bytes. If CGI.pm detects a POST that is greater than
the ceiling, it will immediately exit with an error message. This value
will affect both ordinary POSTs and multipart POSTs, meaning that it
limits the maximum size of file uploads as well. You should set this to a
reasonably high value, such as 1 megabyte.
