Check out the article in the following link - http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue55/florido.html There is a table several paragraphs down that compares the journaling filesystems available for linux. It confirms that Ext3FS has a filesize limit of 2GB. THe filesystem can be 4 TB but a file is limited too 2 GB. The good news is that XFS (a favorite with the gentoo folks), JFS and ReiserFS all seem to have much higher limits.
