Short description of error
I am unable to import a fbx file from maya(have not tried other programs yet)

After I imported it nothing happens but a temporary error message pops up: Couldn't open file 'C:\Documents\Maya\somthing.fbx'

And in the console it ran like normal:
FBX Import: start importing C:\Documents\Maya\somthing.fbx
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi,
I have the same problem with blender 3.0.0 and i also tried this with 3.1.2. I cant open FBX file (size 6 GB i know it is super large) when importing. This is the message i get back from console. We tried this on laptop with 16 GB of ram, and on PC with 64 GB of ram but it still didn't work.

File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.0\3.0\scripts\addons\io_scene_fbx\import_fbx.py", line 2409, in load
elem_root, version = parse_fbx.parse(filepath)
File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.0\3.0\scripts\addons\io_scene_fbx\parse_fbx.py", line 188, in parse
elem = read_elem(read, tell, use_namedtuple)
File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.0\3.0\scripts\addons\io_scene_fbx\parse_fbx.py", line 147, in read_elem
elem_subtree.append(read_elem(read, tell, use_namedtuple))

Strange I have imported an fbx somewhere in the past months, but I didn't get get an error.
My armature did have incorrect scaling relative to the mesh though.
But than again, I have never worked on files as large as yours.
