    There is config setting:

    $Configuration['Garden']['Upload']['MaxFileSize'] = '5M';
    

    However, this is initially set to 50M so you may have another problem. There are two php ini settings that also control your max file upload: post_max_size and upload_max_filesize. If it's one or both of these setting you're going to have to get them changed with your web host.

    I think we made it big to accommodate imports.

    it's probably because your php settings are limiting you.... per Todd's original reply. I had to modify my ini file, so too is likely your fate. Talk to your hosting provider...
