As I just mentioned in the reply to Guy Harris, we plan on doing this step- wise. Maybe allocate 100 MiB at a time. Maybe 200? :-) It is also quite possible that Guy Harris' reply to this email is the way to go, i.e., growing a file and mmap'ing the new area. -- Erlend Hamberg "Everything will be ok in the end.
