To be more precise, that depends on the OS. On Windows there is a limit of 2GB adressable memory per process (this is unrelated to the amount of physical memory). You may increase that limit to 3GB. I think Python can handle all the memory the OS is able to provide. But do you actually have to keep the whole file in memory? -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
