It’s D. The transit engine is really meant for small to medium data sizes, not huge blobs like 2GB. Sending that much data through transit isn't practical or efficient.

It’s B because transit doesn’t store data permanently but can handle large blobs by using temporary storage in the backend during processing. That fits better than outright rejecting it as in D.

D, because transit isn't meant for huge data blobs, way too big to handle directly.
