File Size Limits - General

The following limits affect file size in general:
  • 32-bit Windows platforms impose a file size limit of 4 Gbytes.
  • 64-bit Windows platforms allow for very large file sizes.
  • Some UNIX platforms impose a file size limit of 2 Gbytes.
Note: Even on UNIX platforms that support larger file sizes, the default kernel settings frequently impose a 2 Gbyte limit.
