Magnus:
I usually tell my users that the larger the files the less chance there is of
successfully uploading them in the web user interface. The problem isn't
DSpace but involves the browser timing out.
I have had users upload 1-2GB files sucessfully, but our local guidelines state
that we prefer files that are 50MB or less.If a file is greater than 500MB,
I ask people to give me the files to load using the batch loader.
As for downloading, people downloading (depending on the speed of their
internet providers) could take a long time getting the item downloaded, and
their browser could timeout in the process.
I know that @MIRE had some streaming options for certain files that would
probably help with this.

Subject: [Dspace-tech] How large files can one ingest using the web user
interface?
Hello everyone,
I got two questions:
1) How large files (GB) can one ingest into DSpace using the web user interface?
2) How large files (GB) can one download from DSpace using the web user
interface?
Thanks!
