However you want to look at it, the point is that the HTTP upload option

The OP wants to upload more than 4GB and I wouldn't trust HTTP to
transfer 4GB from a client to a server on a regular basis. There is no
way to resume a failed upload.

Why not follow up on by looking at the Flash upload control at Dropbox
that Marnen Laibow-Koser describes? See how fast it can upload 250MB,
what it does if you interrupt the upload, etc.
