Depends what you mean. The "ldiskfs" code is mostly ext3, plus CFS
patches to do things like extents, fast EAs, htree, etc. so the limits
per filesystem (currently at least) the generally the same as ext3.
The exception is that Lustre can support much larger files and filesystems
because of the aggregation of multiple files.
Please see http://www.clusterfs.com/faq.html#size-1 for details on the
aggregate limits.
At some point in the future we will support larger filesystems,
but the current reality is that this is not handled by even the
2.6 core kernel properly (for 32-bit systems at least).
Cheers, Andreas
