size_t is also equivalent to unsigned long and it will not hold value of (1 << 35) for 32 bit system.
So we can do two things.

(1) reduce FILE SIZE to (1 << 30), so that UL (size_t) can hold this value.
It will not show any perofrmance boost with ZEROCOPY. (checked on x86_64)

(2) use unsigned long long to work with both 32 and 64 bit system.
It will show performance boost with ZEROCOPY.(checked on x86_64)

What do you think?

Thanks and regards,
Maninder Singh
