You might try using standard shell commands
(ls -la) and capturing the values into either
strings or double floats. You could probably
work something out that would give you most of
what you need.
A hack... most definately, but I've had
good luck dealing with 64bit ints as doubles
without loosing too much precision.

If they are smaller than 4GB you can do this:
printf("%u", filesize("filename")); Everything larger would be a
problem, as the return value from filesize is an integer.

I have to manage astronomical images which are rather big !
I would like to get filesize to display basic data on them via
a browser.

Most likely not soon... internally PHP uses a signed integer for string
lengths and other things. What exactly do you want to do with this?

Is there any hope to see a large file support in php ?
