I haven't use mmap() in years, but I'm guessing if you mmap() a 10GB file, you are gonna have a bad time. I suppose the C version could be modified to mmap() chunks. That's a log of complexity though and we're talking about differences of milliseconds in runtime. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
