No Response received when sending Large Attachments

Hi,

I need to verify my service can cope with large  (100MB) attachments being sent to it.

So I created a TestStep that sends it an attachment with that size.
Now verifying on the server side shows everything went fine, i.e. the huge attachment got sent fine. The response from the server if everything went fine is an empty response document with HTTP Status OK.
In case of an error I'm sending a rather small XML error document with HTTP Status 404.
So IMHO the size of the response should not be the culprit.

The Problem I'm faced with is the TestStep within SoapUI never returns with a valid response (eventually it times out).

If I reduce the size of the attachment to 30MB, then everything works as expected again.

The funny thing is, when I take a look at the RAW response, in case I had an error on the server side, the RAW response is shown, but the Test Step is still shown as executing (and no Test assertions are executed).

I'm currently using

Build soapui-core-daily-2009-04-17-[1], Build Date 2009/04/17 02:05

Any Ideas what could cause this?

kind regards

René
