AFNetworking upload image using AFHTTPClient - ios

Question

My question is why AFHTTPClient is slow to upload image. I am using the below code for uploading
NSData *imageToUpload = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(uploadedImgView.image, 1.0);
NSDictionary *parameters = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:keyParameter, #"keyName", nil];
AFHTTPClient *client= [AFHTTPClient clientWithBaseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://------"]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [client multipartFormRequestWithMethod:#"POST" path:#"API name as you have" parameters:parameters constructingBodyWithBlock: ^(id <AFMultipartFormData>formData) {
[formData appendPartWithFileData: imageToUpload name:#"image" fileName:#"temp.jpeg" mimeType:#"image/jpeg"];
}];
AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc] initWithRequest:request];
[operation setCompletionBlockWithSuccess:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject)
{
NSDictionary *jsons = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:responseObject options:kNilOptions error:nil];
//NSLog(#"response: %#",jsons);
}
failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error)
{
if([operation.response statusCode] == 403)
{
//NSLog(#"Upload Failed");
return;
}
//NSLog(#"error: %#", [operation error]);
}];
[operation start];

It might be happen that your image is large and taking time to upload Or you can use latest AFNetworking and can track progress while upload image.
NSData *imageToUpload = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(uploadedImgView.image, 1.0);
NSDictionary *parameters = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:keyParameter, #"keyName", nil];
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
manager.requestSerializer = [AFHTTPRequestSerializer serializer];
manager.responseSerializer = [AFHTTPResponseSerializer serializer];
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes = [manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes setByAddingObject:#"text/html"];
NSString *URLtoCall = #"API name as you have";
[manager POST:URLtoCall parameters:parameters constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> _Nonnull formData) {
[formData appendPartWithFileData:imageToUpload name:#"image" fileName:#"temp.jpeg" mimeType:#"image/jpeg"];
} progress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull task, id _Nullable responseObject) {
} failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable task, NSError * _Nonnull error) {
}];
