I think Andre's point is that you should not use Qt containers for such large amounts of data, but rather some other data structure better suited for your case (most trivially, std::vector instead of QList). The implicit sharing of Qt containers is a nice trait that enables you to write more

We write science data processing software (github.com/bluequartzsoftware/dream3d) and there have been more than a few times where we load up past 32 bit signed int number of elements in an array. We are adding out-of-core to our software now which means we are definitely going past signed 32
