Appendix:
Maximum File Sizes in the 64-bit File Server
.PP
The maximum size of a single file in a Plan 9 file server's
file system with 64-bit block numbers
is determined by the file system block size
(there are single, double, triple and quadruple indirect blocks).
The maximum size is thus
$d ( 6 + x + x sup 2 + x sup 3 + x sup 4 )$
bytes, where
$d = blocksize - ( 2 + 2 + 8 )$
and
$x = left floor d over 8 right floor$,
8 being the size in bytes of a
.I "long long"
block number.
.LP
Note that
$2 sup 63 ~ = ~ 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 ~ = ~ 8$
EB (binary exabytes).
