maximum size of ufs file system

[Desmond Phoon]

I do not agreed that regular file size limit only up to 2Gb, I tried once
written a program to write to a file, which able to exceed 6Gb (of course I
stop it after that).

And I have checked struct stat in the include file /usr/include/sys/stat.h
and it shows the filesize is off_t (which is int64) in current
implementation, so I assume it is 2^63 size.

Please correct me if I'm wrong b'cos I would like to know this too.

Regards,

A UFS file system can be as large as 1 Tbyte (terabyte) and can have regular

files up to 2 Gbytes
