Subject: sftp a big file

Last night I tried to sftp a really big file and it failed at about 90
percent done.
I saw an error message that's somewhat similar to "Message received too big".
It is my daily practice to download big files using sftp and I have
never seen that
before. The size is usally about 500MB to 1GB and I have no problem doing them.
But this one was way bigger than that and I'm wondering if there is any filesize
limitation on sftp/cygwin.

Jack
