I am trying to restore a confluence site that I had to get access to my backed up materials. I try to follow the instructions by going to Settings->Import Spaces->Import Your Space Export. It uploads and reaches close to the end of the progress bar and states:

To be clear I have a fresh, paid standard cloud subscription.

Try Coming Back Later

Open a new tab

Refresh this page

You could also be out of memory

I have 64GB of ram available, I opened a new tab, refreshed the new page and tried coming back later

Here is the descriptor file from the backup. I am restoring to a new cloud instance. The backup is 8GB in size.

The problem (answered by support) is there is a magical 200MB limit placed on restore. It seems that perhaps atlassian has scale issues on the back end for restore. I am trying the restore now but it will take eight hours to determine if this fixes the issue. I will post once completed.
