Do you mean minutes literally, e.g. 120 seconds or more? What is your
CPU usage during this interval?
Yes: sometimes five to ten minutes, with top showing pan using anywhere
from 48-82% of my CPU usage.
Yes, you can delete the article-cache directory completely and pan will
just make a new one. When in doubt, I just rename a directory instead
of deleting it, and then I can always put it back if something breaks.
I tried it, but no change. In fact, it insisted that all the messages
in my group were unread. I had to resort, mark everything before today
unread and redo everything. Then, it hung so badly that I had to
force-quit, and top showed that it was still running in the background
until kill -9 put an end to it.
Having said all this, my gut feeling is that the problem is elsewhere,
like in the connection(s) to your news-server(s), for example.
One news server, and I find it hard to understand how that could have
such an effect on exit.
You might try starting pan from a terminal prompt with the --debug flag.
Sometimes that will yield some helpful hints.
I just did: all the messages that I'd read today were marked unread
again. The last messages are here:
(socket-impl-gio.cc:548:set_watch_mode) set_watch_mode 2: _tag_watch is
now 0
(nntp.cc:107:fire_done_func) I (0xa555690) am setting my _listener to 0
(nntp-pool.cc:114:check_in) nntp 0xa555690 is being checked in, health is 0
(data-impl.cc:102:save_state) data-impl dtor saving xov, newsrc...
After the first message above, it went into Deep Thought again, and I
started replying to your message. When I went back, it had finally
exited with the rest of the messages.
