Problem with deploy (Error writing to server)

[K J <go...@gmail.com>]

I have a very strange problem when I try to deploy artifacts. For
certain artifacts, the deployment fails with the message 'Error
deploying artifact: Error transferring file...Error writing to server'
(I included the stacktrace below). It appears to be related to the
size of the artifact, but here's the kicker -- the size restriction
isn't consistent acrosss artifact types. I can deploy an 11M WAR, but
can't deploy a 30M WAR. I can deploy a 96K JAR, but can't deploy a
128K JAR. (Sorry for the broad size range, I haven't had enough time
to narrow it down further).

I don't know if it's related, but I also noticed an oddity when I was
trying to narrow down the 'breaking point' for the size. I set up a
test project which deploys a jar and added images as resources to
build up the size. After passing the size threshold (which caused the
deploy to fail), I would remove the newest image and try to rebuild,
but now the deploy would fail with a 'connection reset' or 'connection
reset by peer: socket write error' message. Without making any
changes, I rerun 'mvn clean deploy' or 'mvn deploy. Most of the time
everything deploys fine; although sometimes it takes two tries before
it succeeds.  For clarity, I outlined those steps below:

1.) Add image. Build and deploy fine. Size 96K.
2.) Add another image. Build fine, deploy breaks: Error writing to
server. Size 128K.
3.) Remove last image. Build fine, deploy breaks: Connection reset. Size 96K.
4.) No changes. Build and deploy fine. Size 96K.

 Some additional information:
* I experience this problem using both Maven 2.0.9 and 2.2.1.
* Our repository is managed by Nexus (deployed to Tomcat with SSL from
apache). Nexus might be part of the problem, but I've checked some of
the logs, but I can't find any indication of errors on that side of
things.
* Our network uses a socks proxy (v5).

Lastly, here is the stack trace (and a bit of the Maven output):

If anyone has any idea what might be causing the problem, or how to go
about fixing it, I would greatly appreciate the help. Let me know if
you need more information. Thanks in advance.
