> A user reports that they have an ~800MB CSV file and a schema to parse that file that looks something like this:
> {code:xml}
> <xs:element name="file">
> <xs:complexType>
> <xs:sequence dfdl:separator="%NL;" dfdl:separatorPosition="postfix">
> <xs:element name="row" maxOccurs="unbounded">
> <xs:complexType>
> <xs:sequence dfdl:separator=",">
> <xs:element name="field1" type="xs:string"/>
> <xs:element name="field2" type="xs:string"/>
> ...
> <xs:element name="fieldN" type="xs:string"/>
> </xs:sequence>
> </xs:complexType>
> </xs:element>
> </xs:sequence>
> </xs:complexType>
> </xs:element>
> {code}
> Parsing this large file fails with the exception:
> {quote}[error] Runtime Schema Definition Error: Attempted to backtrack too far: Attempted to backtrack to byte 268427263, which exceeds maximum backtrack length of 268435456
> {quote}
> This schema does not require any backtracking, so shouldn't be hitting this issue.
