in thread file truncate not working on 128GB file in Windows

Are you sure about that?

Good question.
I readily accepted sectokia's assertion, but I don't really know.

One can (and I routinely do) build "MSWin32-x86" perls on my 64-bit Windows 11 box.
Would the same limitation apply to those perls ?
Some of those 32-bit builds have ivsize of 4, others have ivsize of 8, but they all have ptrsize of only 4.

Cheers,
Rob
