I am trying to build a data structure in Python which exceeds 4GB in

when it hits 4GB:
Python(23121) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=262144) failed (error
code=3)
Python(23121) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region
Python(23121) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug
My hope is that Leopard ships with a 64-bit version of Python, so
that I can at least fill up the 10GB of RAM that I have.
I have the latest Mac Pro with 10.5.3. I ran the sys.maxint test and
got the 32-bit result. I tried both the Apple python and the MacPorts
python 2.5.2.
Cheers!
