Today at Sage Days we tried slices on a few large arrays (no mmap) and found that slicing breaks on arrays somewhere between 2.0e9 and 2.5e9 elements. The failure mode is the same, no error thrown, basically nothing happens
This was on one of the big sage machines. I don't know the specific OS / CPU but it was definitely 64 bit and lots of available memory etc.
Could you file a bug ticket in the Numpy Trac, http://projects.scipy.org/numpy so that there's a better chance that this doesn't get forgotten. Thanks, -- Pauli Virtanen
