Even on Linux? I'm studying a database project where the raw data is 10 to 20
Gb (it will be in several tables in the same database). Linux has a limit of 2
Gb for a file (even on 64-bits machine, if I'm correct). A colleague told me
to use NetBSD instead, because PostgreSQL on a Linux machine cannot host more
than 2 Gb per database. Any practical experience? (I'm not interested in "It
should work".)
