My backup script split filesystem dumps to files with size of 4,37 GB (4 588 544 kB). It's just an optimal size to fill out DVDs. At this moment I have to burn them from windows via smb-link becuase I didn't manage to do this task from FreeBSD console due to 2GB/4GB filesize restrictions (growisofs).

Since when did FreeBSD (or growisofs) have a 2GB/4GB filesize limit? I
have burned 4.3GB DVDs several times.

I never had a problem writing huge files. But I did have a problem subsequently reading it with Windows XP. Maybe the file size restriction is a Windows thing.
