Logstalgia chokes on big log files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. take a 2Gb+ apache log file
2. try to run it with the -f option
3. look at "Runtime Error! Microsoft Visual++ Runtime Library" error message :)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

  1.0.3 on Windows XP


Please provide any additional information below.

First we thought that awstat's logmerge.pl script we were using was the cause 
and corrupted the log files (there have been reports about this when using it 
on Windows with ActiveState's Perl), but then ran it again on an Ubuntu 
machine, and the error message occurred as well.

We therefore think it's something to do with Logstalgia, maybe specific to 
Windows and the way big files are handled.

Thanks for looking into this.
