Above 5Mbytes, I started seeing problems. The line/word/char counts from "wc" started being "0 0 0". Not sure if this is a problem in "wc" dealing with a single line >5MBytes, or some other problem (possibly I was exceeding the per-process stack limit which is only 8MB on that machine).
Interesting. If you're exceeding your stack ulimit, you should be seeing either an "argument list too long" message or getting a SIGSEGV. Have you tried bypassing wc and piping the output straight to a file?
