In may someone reported that he could not upload a 12Mb file, so there seems

In an old post from Ed LaFrance in 2005 are some considerations about large
file uploads:

Not totally sure but he is probably referring to the HammerLock directive:

But you do not get any error messages/failures when doing the upload?
