[mapserver-users] RASTER MAX SIZE

[Fawcett, David]

Assuming that MapServer can use an image this large, if you want to serve up maps with good performance, you will likely want to pre-process the data.  (e.g. create smaller tiles, create overviews, etc.)

I am pretty sure that a local agency here was serving a WMS based on a 20gb ECW file using MapServer.

Hi everyone,
             We are planning to buy a huge raster file (9 GB) but before buying it we would need to know if mapserver can deal with this kind of images ( that large).
      I was reading the mapserver documentation but I couldn't find anything regarding this. 
       Is there any limitation with the image size or just those given by the image format ( for example the 4GB Geotiff limit)?
       Thanks in advance , regards.
