Maximum file size for setup.jar?

Is there a maximum file size for the setup.jar? We have crossed over the 2 gig boundry and our install no longer starts? We get the following error msg:
"The java class is not found: run"

I have had a similar problem. I think it is with a limitation of java. I think the CRC check goes beyond java's MAXINT with a file over 2 GB. I was able to work around this by splitting the installation up into two jar files or using a directory installer. I then had to make a custom app bundle for the mac to be user friendly.

I really wish macrovision would have told me that this would be an issue when I was researching the product. 😞

We also ended up having to find ways to reduce the size of setup.jar so that it was under 2 GB. So I am assuming this is a hard limit.
