Re: [Zope-dev] 2gb ZODB size limit
Yes, you will hit this limit. Windows uses a 32 bit integer for file size...

Windows, according to Trent Mick a Developer here at ActiveState who added in some large file support for Python platforms for python 2.0 (and has looked at this in detail).

Re: [Zope-dev] 2gb ZODB size limit
[Morten W. Petersen] | It's a problem with Linux, if you want to be able to use databases | 2GB in size on Linux, a kernel = 2.4.0 is required. Nope. First, the limit is at file-level, not database-level (mind you, a problem with the filesystem, not Linux per se). You can have tons and tons of files, but noone of those can be over 2GB. Secondly, this is only true for the ext2 (and lesser filesystems). ReiserFS does not have this limitation and I've heard that is supposed to be shipped batteries included come 2.4.1. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
