Depending on whether you built Analog as a 32-bit or 64-bit binary and
depending on how your OS handles large files, there may be a 4GB file limit.
But generally I would expect a different error. If the file is not around
the 4GB limit then something else is going on. Could it be locked? Can you
'head /files/b.log' as the current user?
