Peter Fassev commented on STR-2959:
-----------------------------------

Just a side note: Currently there is no browser which supports more than 4 
GByte upload or download. The Internet Explorer for instance has a 2 GB 
Limitation. If you try to upload more the 2 GB, the IE will silently upload 
only the part of the last 2 GB without any comment or error notification. And 
you can not check with java script what the use has selected.

Firefox may upload or download up to 4 GB, but only when the Server does not 
keep alive. If you try to upload more then 4 GB, Firefox does refuses to send 
the form. But there is no message why, actually there is no message at all.

So someone has to use some other client but not a browser to send and receive 
such big files. But files up to 2 GBytes are OK.

Peter
