Is there a BUG in geth? About goleveldb

[dong14]

Now, my geth is running in the "full" mode, but when the amount of data is more than 1TB, the process is interrupted. And the error is as follows:

After analysis，the code with problem is as follows:

`var bunits = [...]string{"", "Ki", "Mi", "Gi"}

func shortenb(bytes int) string { i := 0 for ; bytes > 1024 && i < 4; i++ { bytes /= 1024 } return fmt.Sprintf("%d%sB", bytes, bunits[i]) }`

So, please pay attention to it as soon as possible.
