mmaps come out of your applications memory space, so out of that 3 GB

Hmm. So I have no chance to use >= 2 of these arrays simultaniously?
... That would be a solution, but it takes twice the amount of address
space (which seems already to be the limiting factor). In my case (1.6
GB per array), I could even not use one array.
Looks like you are out of luck here. I believe looking to do this
without managing the I/O yourself is likely to involve someone else's
trade-offs, which likely fail to match your use case. You might check
gmane.comp.python.scientific.user
which I think is gmane's mirror of comp.python.scipy.user, but I'm
not certain of the mailing list name. Certainly the people over there
regularly deal with accessing large data.
