I just ran into this.  I'm not sure what "system storage" means as a limit,
but on my 1GB machine, I ran into physical problems at 4GB.  My guess is
that FTP uses a 32-bit size value, and that at 4GB it fails.  I was easily
able to transfer files over 1GB, but when attempting to transfer a file of
4GB, it actually crapped out at 4GB-1072 bytes.
