Are you sure that the file system of your host of DeleGate is able to
manipulate a file larger than 2GB?  My RedHat7.1 on VirtualPC cannot
do it, and caching-FTP-DeleGate does abort when trying to write more
than the limit.

The abortion can be escaped by catching the SIGXFSZ signal.  It could be
ignored silently, or a huge file might be represented in several partial
files as follows.

 ./file
 ./file#0x80000000
 ./file#0x100000000
 ...

Anyway DeleGate should have a configuration parameter to limit maximum
size of data allowed to be cached ...

Cheers,
Yutaka
