Dear Coreutils Maintainers,
First, thank you for your work. I use coreutils daily both for my research
and teaching. It is a great set of tools.
Second, I have recently run into an "No space left on device" error when
attempting to csplit a 200GB xml file.
The command I am using is:
csplit --quiet --elide-empty-files --digits=12 --prefix=zz_ 00_founder_file
/"<entry id="/ {*};
I should say that this command works like a charm with 2GB and with 20GB
test files, but when scaled to the target file (200GB), csplit reports the
error and stops there, despite the fact that I have plenty of disk space
and memory available on the machine.
I should also say that I am running this process on an Ubuntu machine
(default ulimit parameters):
Linux digitalbiology01 5.15.0-46-generic #49~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 4
19:15:44 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I am using: csplit (GNU coreutils) 8.30
Any advice/comments on how to proceed will be gratefully appreciated
Rodolfo
