php file uploads over 200mb

Question

after changing the max file size, session times, and post max size is it wise to use php to upload files larger than 200mb? reliable? (and this is ignoring whether a client connection is maintained)

edit: done through http not ftp

No problem.

We have an up-/downloads site at work so that customers can send print data. And these files can get pretty big.

does your site transfer data over http? – Dacto Mar 13 '09 at 18:59
@Dacto: I've never seen an ftp server written in PHP. Would be fun, though. Of course it's http. It's a PHP question. – stesch Mar 13 '09 at 19:08

I think that major issue is client's browser stability, and client's connection. It's pretty hard to transmit that much of data without any accident...
