Wow, I had no idea GitHub releases would tolerate such a huge release asset: https://github.com/zlib-searcher/zlib-searcher/releases (index_0.6.zip is 1.48GB and index_0.5.zip is 1.75GB) It seems their API docs do talk about 502s during upload, but don't otherwise specify a limit: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/releases/assets?apiVersion=2...

The irony of not hosting them on IPFS does not escape me :-/
