I really don't know if it is a browser specific problem, a BASE problem 
or a limitation in the underlying operating system of the server. I 
guess most operating systems support larger files so the last not 
likely. In any case, do you see any error messages in Tomcat's log file 
that seem related to this?

The only thing I can think of on the BASE side is that the content size 
is only available as an integer in the Servlet API, which can hold a max 
value around 2GB. I don't know what happens if the content size is 
larger, but I think the progress bar may get confused if it gets a 
negative value or no value at all.
