Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing a 400+MB upload on the stated iOS, Nextcloud, nginx, and MariaDB setup, then trace the progress view through the timeout behavior. Done means the upload completes or retries/resumes after an intermittent connection loss without becoming stuck.
