Well, this process is still running....and it's up to just about 15M (1.3g) so hopefully, it will be done very soon - I estimated this to take about an hour or so, well, thats turning into almost 20 hours.
I don't know if I have the 64bit option available, I could but something tells me I don't - I'm on version 10.0.2 of UV But if it crashes the process because the file gets too big, I'll have to pare down what gets written out - just less history, this is a file that once it's created, it's exported and rarely used, so it's getting the slow part out of the way once, after that, it runs fast for updating. > -----Original Message----- > From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users- > boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of John Thompson > Sent: Friday, June 03, 2011 9:46 AM > To: U2 Users List > Subject: Re: [U2] File Item Count Limit? > > Also, If they are 64 bit files in Universe then they can grow quite > large on > the disk. > > You can have a file that probably takes up to 64 GB of disk space. > Depending on the record size, etc... who knows how many records that > could > be.
