I've complained about the 2 GiB limit now and then for several years. It's a holdover from when 32-bit numbers were all that CPUs supported, and lots of code used C's signed "int" for file size and offset. Way back in 1996, FAT32 had this limit, but even it was extended to 4 GiB (via unsigned 32-bit numbers) when Large File Support was added. These days, media files are often bigger than 2 GiB, as are some archive files (esp. disk images). Furthermore, almost all recent versions of standard OSes are 64-bit, and very few 32-bit CPUs are even being sold. In other words, the 2 GiB limit is quite an anachronism. _______________________________________________ Manage your clamav-users mailing list subscription / unsubscribe: https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-documentation https://docs.clamav.net/#mailing-lists-and-chat
