1. sequence size and eds
hi all,
as far i know there is no true limit for a sequence, only one's
available memory, however, is there a limit for sequence size in an EDS
database?

Currently, the length of a sequence, in memory or in EDS,
must fit in a 32-bit unsigned number (i.e. 4Gb maximum).
Before you hit that limit, you'll hit the 4Gb limit on the
total size of a .edb file. In EDS, a sequence requires
at least one byte per element, maybe more if you use
large integers or floating-point numbers.
Both the 4Gb limit on sequence length, and
the 4Gb limit on EDS database size could be
removed eventually, without breaking any code.
