We're using gmp (library found at https://github.com/ncw/gmp) to run on large inputs, and we have arrays with thousands of elements at a time in our code. When we write these arrays to files, we find that the values of some of the elements have changed.
We tested our by code by reading in an input file of large numbers, casting them to gmp.Int, storing them in an array, and writing them to an output file. This works for an array of ~1400 numbers, but if the array gets any larger than that the values in the array change. Below we print the first element of our array each time a new element gets appended. As the size goes past 1435, the value of the first value changes, and it changes again when the size goes past 1437: output: 1434 27928410756179523138881080989986005991789933932188228018115755918494634799929873910027825747854697455979387110847058629350347288500624884424807086906801594642406392448568530327829083514883524712985492538589993807582131300292739787897589360129490451849769622648595726892334513355855504557741514903175075958458960111055024641406976670602678887952234068019841236549447926340755063903373950684252611325596552928912480285833159841819645546289989159869982214159616531691638376958340264087137749469269647555189450117026947774590910035240238694361652478067361121651905941283054193444516391789652433009672685099320489013369511 output: 1435 27928410756179523138881080989986005991789933932188228018115755918494634799929873910027825747854697455979387110847058629350347288500624884424807086906801594642406392448568530327829083514883524712985492538589993807582131300292739787897589360129490451849769622648595726892334513355855504557741514903175075958458960111055024641406976670602678887952234068019841236549447926340755063903373950684252611325596552928912480285833159841819645546289989159869982214159616531691638376958340264087137749469269647555189450117026947774590910035240238694361652478067361121651905941283054193444516391789652433009672685099320489013369511 output: 1436 27928410756179523138881080989986005991789933932188228018115755918494634799929873910027825747854697455979387110847058629350347288500624884424807086906801594642406392448568530327829083514883524712985492538589993807582131300292739787897589360129490451849769622648595726892334513355855504557741514903175075958458960111055024641406976670602678887952234068019841236549447926340755063903373950684252611325596552928912480285833159841819645546289989159869982214159616531691638376958340264087137749469269647555189450117026947774590910035240238694361652478067361121651905941283054193424735876961338910144554408906597071520268288 output: 1437 27928410756179523138881080989986005991789933932188228018115755918494634799929873910027825747854697455979387110847058629350347288500624884424807086906801594642406392448568530327829083514883524712985492538589993807582131300292739787897589360129490451849769622648595726892334513355855504557741514903175075958458960111055024641406976670602678887952234068019841236549447926340755063903373950684252611325596552928912480285833159841819645546289989159869982214159616531691638376958340264087137749469269647555189450117026947774590910035240238694361652478067361121651905941283054193424735876961338910144554408906597071520268288 output: 1438 23937065258617293607419221241376749238853786485747685256178538183999977338295726770968837510115411713639449942813542410122781003049158815334638386757489378865115690993509412251696127283961449052609910367016753503276717219374706887218515185370729246298124537836902676996868643830290196728475836135942660102147078687203464316120920925288760650180847521449886391007761057733951927560142110014087955337930094606086003264404490081726797410733774516424213240813188435922154321511108819176444188185518457225955025510879142933128937566544835525378040039436242357463757111369800670593394434569238912921305016540547229516010929 We tried the exact same test with math/big, and this was not an issue.
