Indeed it is. Are there many newsgroups that busy? :) Yesterday I gave 0.110 the a.b.m.startrek challenge -- it failed. The 'get headers' task was doing things that were find for regular groups, even large groups, but once you get up past 1,000,000 headers the overhead snowballed. I gave bugzilla a longish brain dump on the things I found wrong. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353334 for more info. More importantly, it also has a patch to fix this in 0.111. I tested the patch against both 0.110 and 0.14.9x CVS, and the patch won. memory comparisons are also included in the bug report. cheers, Charles _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
