You, like me, are using 3.22 which does not have the myisam table type (or others for that matter). ISAM I believe, has a lower limit. They do support sizes less that 4GB (up to the OS file size limits). The three file extentions total do constitute the total table size, but I believe that each file must fall under the 4GB limit, not the total. isamchk is the equivalent to myisamchk for ISAM table types.
