Hi, I have a large log file (approx 1GB gzip compressed) that I want to search. When I try to decompress it the resulting file is only just over 300MB. While its possible it was just horribly inefficient compresison I suspect I'm hitting some bug...perhaps due to the resulting file being greater than 2GB? Does anyone know what is going on and what I can do about it? Thanks, Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
