My guess is not enough memory.

If 1 Gig isn't enough memory, why am I, with only 256 Meg not having any issues?

IMO the single most greatest thing about the current generation of pan has been the huge increase in memory efficiency. Some large newsgroups used to push pan's memory image over 1.5GB. The FreeBSD default maximum process size is 512MB and had to be increased because a lot of newsgroups exceeded that limit.

Learned in the old pan to "delete" messages I wasn't interested in so as to make room for new incoming.

With the current pan I have left the FreeBSD maximum process size at 512MB, no longer "delete" messages, only mark them as read, and no longer have any memory issues.

I say "delete" because its only removed from pan's cache, its not sending a delete/kill request to the news server.
