[ome-users] Maximum size supported in OMERO Importer

[Paulo Almeida]

Hi Sriram,

For what it's worth, I have uploaded several files over 100 MB (.stk and .lif 
formats) and one 1.5 GB file (I don't remember the format of that one). I 
have had some issues with upload speed, but if the files are not uploading at 
all it may be a problem with the format. I never tried uploading big JPEG 
images.

Regards,
- Paulo
