preperation: (so you don't need to find a vfat mp3 player to reproduce
:) )
	dd if=/dev/zero of=diskimage bs=1024k count=4608
	/sbin/mkfs.vfat diskimage
	mkdir tmp
	mount -o loop diskimage tmp

then:

anubis:somedir# time gnomevfs-copy \
                file:///somedir/debian-31r0a-i386-binary-1.iso \
		file:///somedir/tmp/debian-31r0a-i386-binary-1.iso
File size limit exceeded

real    9m36.942s
user    0m1.538s
sys     0m16.396s

$ ls -l tmp
total 4194304
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 4294967295 2005-06-22 16:09 debian-31r0a-i386-binary-1.iso
