Well, if there was no server process the website should not appear
at all. And the website is working.

Nope, I did not changed any technical setting. I only changed something
for users. And yes, I have a single 80MB file that are the results of
a long numerical experiment (an Octave session).

I read something about sqlite and fossil limits and I recall them
much larger than that.

I do not know if it counts, but the Settings webpage under max-uploads
shows 250000.

I am using thttpd 2.25b. I had to make a little patch because thttpd does not
set the HTTP_HOST variable for CGI scripts correctly as explained in this
mailing list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org/msg02119.html

And the configuration file contains:
dir=/home/srv/thttpd
data_dir=/home/srv/thttpd
cgipat=fossil/**
logfile=/var/log/thttpd/thttpd_log
pidfile=/var/run/thttpd.pid
port=3333

I read again the man page, but I could not find anything interesting
about size limits.
