The maximum size of a file in Unix depends on two things: the word size of the kernel, and the setting for LARGE_FILE support on the file system.

For 32 bit system the maximum default would be about 2 gigabytes.

For 64 bit systems or ones with LARGE_FILE support, the maximum would be approximately 264
