The datafile must also be less than 2GB (or maybe 4GB) because currently the fs file contains a 32bit offset to each molecule in the datafile. Splitting the fs file is a cumbersome way of getting round this and would require external scripting to combine the results. If the data set were converted to SMILES it would be much smaller, which would mitigate the problem. But I agree that using a database for similarity searches with very large datasets would be better.
