history/dbz limits

Hi,
I'm wondering about the limits for the size of the history file and the
DBZ index for it. We use inn as an archive server for email lists and news
groups.
Compiled as a 32 bit app with largefiles enabled:
$ makehistory -F -O -s 200000000
...
makehistory: dbz: getcore: read failed: Invalid argument
makehistory: openhashtable: getcore failure: Invalid argument
makehistory: can't dbzfresh /etc/operator/db/history Invalid argument
makehistory: dbzclose: not opened!
makehistory: can't dbzclose /etc/operator/db/history Invalid argument
makehistory: cannot open /etc/operator/db/history: Invalid argument
So I decided to compile it as a 64 bit app (Solaris), and then I don't get
this problem so I decided to use a larger size argument which is closer to
our future needs:
$ makehistory -F -O -s 1000000000
...
makehistory: dbzsync: putcore failed
makehistory: can't dbzclose /etc/operator/db/history Invalid argument
makehistory: cannot close history file: Invalid argument
So are the limits known for 32 and 64 bit or can I easily calculate them?
I can use trial and error, but knowing the hard limits sounds like a good
idea so we can plan for it...
Thanks!
