v1.0 does not support external table > 2Gb, is a known issue.
Fortunately, this doesn't affect many users. You need to break up you
file into small pieces.

At the moment there are no specific plans for extend support for huge
external files for the v1.5 release, but you can always code the new
logic yourself.
