I'd imagine the JVM heap would have to be cranked up well over 2GB to handle that too. If you are using the 32 bit JVM, you might not be able to set the heap over 2GB.

Is there a limit of 2gb on the size of a POST message in apache2? There is a parameter LimitRequestBody that can be configured in conf.http in apache2 to limit the size of the post message. The value of this parameter can be any number from 0 to 2gb. It is not configured so it is defaulting to 0 which is unlimited. Does "unlimited" mean their is a max size of 2gb?

Some filesystems have a limit of 2GB for a single file.
