hmmm... I suspect it is compiler dependant. I know that a lot of
compilers wrap data structures with a 32bit number at the start and
end to represent the size of the data structure. In this case, you
can only get 4GB if it is an unsigned int, or 2GB if it is a signed int.
However, if you are on a 64bit system, you should be able to have
multiple 2gb data structures (upto the adressing space of linux,
42bits current if I remember correctly).
