Hello guys,

I've been using FreeBSD a few years ago and was very
impressed, however I catched the Linux flu and have
not followed the FreeBSD development the last years.

In Linux (without special kernel patches) there is
a filesize limit of 2GB and fsck is slow.

It's my memory that fsck is much faster on FreeBSD
due to some magic in the filesystem. Is this the
case?  (My 46GB disks would like that)

I have no memory of any filesize limitation on
FreeBSD and would like to know if there is anything
similar to the Linux 2GB limit?
