[ZendTo] Re: > 2GB upload woes

[Jules]

I've just done a bit more testing of large files on Windows.

Given a 7.5GB file, here's the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of what 
happens on Windows 7 64-bit:

Chrome - Good: Gets upload percentage less wrong than IE9, completes 
perfectly.
Safari - Functional: Warns about a division by zero instead of 
displaying the progress bar, completes perfectly.
IE9 - Bad: Gets upload percentage badly wrong, hangs at the end.
Firefox - Ugly: Never even starts sending the file at all.

So if you want to use Windows 7 64-bit, I suggest you use Chrome.

Jules.

P.S. I will be releasing CentOS 6 versions of the VM builds very shortly.
