Let's say that our file consists of nothing but the new line character (1 byte). At 2^64 lines, that's 18.45 EB. Sure, for files larger than 18.45 EB at the minimum, computing the new line count will take O(log N) time. I'm

Ignoring other problems mentioned, what would the benefit of such a system be? I suppose it'd be very customizable, but probably expensive (both initial cost plus the cost of the electricity to run it).
