I didn't find an obvious timeout on puppetd or puppetmasterd --genconfig 
just now, but you may have already tried that. I don't think many people 
use puppet for transferring large files for the reasons you're running 
into. I keep an rsync repository on my puppetmaster for larger files and 
trees, and transfer them that way.

Unless the 100+MB file in question really needs puppet's key-signed 
security, it's probably best to avoid its fileserver for larger files at 
the moment. I think they're working on moving to a REST-based transfer 
method that should fix the problem, but it's not in 0.24.x yet.
