Remarks

When the data flow task processes a column containing BLOB data that is larger than the available memory on the system it temporarily writes data from the BLOB to the file system. This property specifies the location on the file system used by the task. You can specify multiple directories by delimiting the directory names with semicolons. By default, the directory specified by the TEMP environment variable is used.

For a brief discussion of this property and related properties that can be used to optimize the performance of the Data Flow task, see Improving the Performance of the Data Flow.
