Permanent does not support uploads of files greater than 5GB right now, which means there is an error when that is attempted.

Right now I believe this limitation is not communicated until after the file has been written and closed. If memory serves, this is simply a limitation of the SFTP protocol (when opening for write the client has no way of signaling how large the file will be).
