When a nanoset is particularly big (>4 GB), the calculation of
offset
(the actual location within the memmap) can overflow. The issue is with the lineoffset = dataset_sample * self.sequence_length * (np.iinfo(self.token_dtype).bits / 8)
Here,
dataset_sample
is a numpy"uint"
, and the calculation ofoffset
can overflow since numpy's"uint"
type is 32 bits. The solution is to promote everything to native Pythonint
first, which has automatic overflow.
