I tried to upload four files that I think are about 2 MB each and I got a "globals has died" error from CNC. CNC says "While there is no real file size limit, due to the limitations of HTTP your upload may time out while uploading large files or on a slow connection" but the problem looks like a server limitation. I'll try it one file at a time later, but shouldn't the limit be higher?

Does "the limitations of HTTP" mean limits imposed by the HTTP specs or does it mean limitations that ISPs make arbitrarily?

The HTTP protocol was not designed to upload files. HTTP uploads are subject to several resource limitations, such as time, CPU time and memory limitations. There are also limitations on the client side (browser), but you appear to be hitting a server resource limit.
