This is the error I get:

This error is on the client side, on the tomcat logs, I don't see any errors.
I am using large files between 100MB to 500 MB.
When I asked about how heavy the http, I meant compared for ftp for example. I
read somewhere that:
"Tomcat is often considered to be too slow to serve static content"
Is this correct?
Thanks, Michal

Not without some better data.

As far as I know, there is no limit (on the Tomcat side) for *downloading*
files.

What do you mean by "too heavy" ? at the level of the client, or the server ?
(or the bandwidth of your communication channel client(s)<->server ?)
I don't think that this would be either recommended or not recommended. It is
something
that you /can/ do with Tomcat (or any other webserver).
If these are always large static files, you may want to look at a parameter
somewhere
named "useSendFile" or similar, probably in the <Connector> documentation.
