[Zope-dev] Fw: 2gb file size

[Chris McDonough]

I didn't think this was a problem on Windows?  I wonder if Python needs to
be compiled in a special way to support large files on Windows.

Have you tried Tranalyzer to see if will tell you where the transaction
breaks are in the file?  There's a howto by Itamar on Zope.org about how to
do this.
