S3 does not support incremental uploads. Its a pure HTTP post of a
large file. But it works fine ... just as long as the software doesn't
try and load 1GB files directly into memory and then post them out.
That's what I mean by streaming ... its streaming off the hard
disk.... read a bit, add it to the post, read a bit more, add it to
the post.... etc.
