Is it correct in saying that these limits (41 billion) is related to sizeof(int) = 4?

My machine has sizeof(int) = 8, so I can allocate much more than 4GB using malloc. Will I still suffer from this limit of I can go much beyond it?

The limits in MPIR are the same.

In order to get around the limit, you can use the mpn layer of functions.

    Hi:

    Are there any limits on the size of mpz_t in MPIR (Other than
    availble memory)?

    I came to know that GNU GMP had limit of 41 billion on mpz_t
    sometime back (as per
    https://gmplib.org/list-archives/gmp-discuss/2016-July/006013.html),
    which they plan to remove but I don't know if it has been removed.

    Please let me know. I need to calculate digits to 50 trillion.
