Subject: [9fans] seek() in fossil?
Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2003 10:43:00 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.SOL.4.51.0301261039070.55328@csb> (raw)
this article (linked from slashdot, sorry) on freshmeat discusses problems
with large files in unix, but i think at least one of them may be remotely
relevant to plan9, however small the issue may be, it may warrant some
discussion:
fossil has a maximum stream size (maximum file size, as i understand it) of
2^73 bytes, however the seek() system call accepts only a vlong (2^64) as an
argument.
