Description
Describe the bug
When I try to sideload a .ipa file (500 MB or more), a pop up sometimes appears and says "The connection to Altserver was dropped". And I dont get why, my Iphone is connected with USB to my PC, and Altserver is opened.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Windows 10 sideload flow for an iPhone 6s over USB with an IPA of at least 500 MB, focusing on when the AltServer connection is dropped. Done means the sideload completes without the reported popup under the described conditions.
