Hi,
Data.ByteString.Char8.getContents fails for files 2GB on OS X. Is
there a fix for this?
$ cat getContents.hs
main = getContents
$ ./getContents smallFile
$ ./getContents bigFile
getContents: stdin: hGetBuf: invalid argument (Invalid argument)
$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell
build? That might have something to
do with it, if you're nearing 2^32 (or 2^31) bytes.

System.IO.MMap (mmapFileByteString) worked like a charm in loading
files larger than 2 GB on OS X. Using mmapFileByteString and strict
ByteString is roughly seven times faster for my program than using
getContents and ByteString.Lazy.
