someone has experienced the same problem. However I only
managed few statements that perhaps indicate that INFOZIP
has a 2Gb limit.
The file we need to zip actually has: 15,694,524,498
Bytes
GIYF. <http://www.info-zip.org/FAQ.html#limits> says
(slightly edited by me):
"uncompressed size of a single file - 4 GB - This is also
not a hard limit, in that the deflate algorithm used in all
recent releases has its own "end of stream" marker. Some
file systems and/or C libraries may not support files this
big, however"...
