Failing to upload very large (8 GiB+) raw components

[Windos]

What You Are Seeing?

I often need to upload large Vagrant box files to Nexus Raw repos, and have used this module in the past to achieve this. The last time I used this module the box I was uploading was 7.43 GB.

Recently I rebuilt my images and they were (depending on the provider) between 7.73 GB and 8.21 GB (both being over 8,000,000 bytes) and when I try to upload them, this fails:

This happens after sending about 2 GB of data.

What is Expected?

The upload completes successfully.

How Did You Get This To Happen?

1. Have a file over 8 GiB
2. Authenticate against Nexus: Connect-NexusServer -Hostname example.com -Credential (Get-Credential) -UseSSL -Sslport 8443
3. Upload the file: New-NexusRawComponent -RepositoryName 'vagrant-boxes' -Directory 'example/example-test-environment' -File C:\code\test-envirornment-vagrant-box\example-test-environment_1.1.1_hyperv.box -Verbose

On Windows PowerShell this fails at about the 2 GB mark.

On PWSH, this appears to just spin its wheels for hours and never fail (the system does appear to be sending data during this time, but if left long enough it totals way more than the actual file.)

System Details

• Operating System: Windows Server 2019 (Also tested on Windows 11)
• PowerShell version: Windows PowerShell 5.1

I think the fix here is to swap from HttpWebRequest to HttpClient, but my .NET foo is not good enough to POC this.
