Luke Cwik commented on BEAM-2500:
---------------------------------

The GCS implementation uses a fixed size buffer of 32 or 64mbs (don't remember 
which) so buffering in memory is a common practice. 500 mbs does seem like a 
lot but even if you went with 32 mbs, you could support files up to ~320 gb.

> Note that this is for providing direct integration with S3 as an Apache Beam 
> FileSystem.
> There is already support for using the Hadoop S3 connector by depending on 
> the Hadoop File System module[1], configuring HadoopFileSystemOptions[2] with 
> a S3 configuration[3].
