Note that parsing Very Large data could take awhile -- I don't know how
long of tracks people typically upload. The 1000 point track from my
commute this morning was ~200kb -- but my GPS recording client is kinda 
verbose. 

Anyone have some examples of how big a 'large' gpx file usually is for
them that I can try out for performance?
