Hi,

If I understand correctly, the failure occurs while navigating in the "Items" presentation.

I cannot reproduce this problem because I do not have enough disk space for such a large file :). But, could you do the following and let me know what the outcome is:

'path/to/your/large/file.xml' asFileReference��humanReadableSize

?

Cheers,

Doru

Hello, I've run into some odd behavior and wanted to check whether I might be missing something:

I have downloaded a copy of the english wikipedia as an xml file and am hoping to (sax) parse it. However, I can't even seem to get pharo to recognize that the file exists.

If I open FileSystem disk root in the playground and naigate, attempting to enter the folder containing the (57G) xml file fails with "MessageNotUnderstood: False>>humanReadableSIByteSize." Likewise if I get a FileReference with FileSystem disk root / 'path' / 'to' / 'file' then self exists returns false and the parser fails.

Am I doing something wrong? Should I be able to do this?

The version number is #40283

Thanks,

Evan
