On a similar vein, I have a version of Python 2.1.3 for Windows that is compiled with Large file support, if anyone needs this, let me know. On Fri, 27 Jun 2003 10:28:38 +0100, Toby Dickenson <tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com> wrote:

FileStorage does not have this limit.
Your Python interpreter might be compiled without large file system support. Use one that is not.
I think its fair to say that the 2G limit is a danger zone, even if not a point of certain failure. PartitionedFileStorage can be used to avoid that danger zone if you prefer.
