Guys,

Sorry this is a little off topic...  Is there a size limit on DBM's? (Or
Linux files for that matter.. )

I've thrown some details of my box/code below..

Thing is I'm getting a "write error" and it seems to always happen when
the DBM gets to 2.0Gb .. (you may think I'm mad for trying to make 2G
DBM's - but they don't usually get more than a couple of 100k - it's
just a big site.. Honest ;-)

Anyway - if there's anyone with similar experience or anyone has some
advice for me it would be appreciated..

Thanks,
J.

Here are the details..


<Error> :
 write error at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/MLDBM.pm line 161.

<Line to which it's reffering> :
 $s->{DB}->STORE($k, $v);

<My use of MLDBM..>
 use GDBM_File;
 use MLDBM qw(GDBM_File Storable);

<Perl-v>
 This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i686-linux

<uname-a>
