You're right...

The limitation appears to exist with PHP...

Even uploading a large file to localhost fails when
max_post, max_mem and max_up sizes have been upped in PHP.ini

There were some threads a long time ago on PHP's mailing lists about this problem. The problem occurs because instead of writing data to file as php recieves it, it inmstead stores the urlencoded file in memory. Obviously using up a lot of RAM.

From what I recall, the problem begins to occur somewhere at a 5meg level. If you want to upload large files I am afraid you'll need to consider compressing them or doing so via FTP.
