A while ago, @tkelman tried to figure out how to make mmaparrays work on Windows, but he was unsuccessful (https://github.com/JuliaIO/HDF5.jl/issues/89).

+1 for giving it another try...though I may know too little about Windows to help

Funny that you ask, I gave it another try today, but wasn't able to fix it (btw I believe this is an issue with base julia's mmap ccall, but I wasn't able to figure out what)

Yes it's definitely an issue with mmap, not HDF5. I run into this often without using HDF5.jl
