Hi Nicolas,

Thank you for checking. The reason why I ask is because such limit is
important for bioinformatics. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) machines are
generating bigger files (these are typically FASTQ files) everyday, have a
look at this cdbfasta forum
http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15331 for an example of
what's happening. Maybe the CDB designers didn't anticipated genomes would
be available today. However, it's a nice project and is an important
library.
Cheers,

Hernán
