I've got a handful of servers I subscribe to groups from. About once every day or two, with random groups (which one varies, and all of them have been hit from one time to another), Pan will decide that instead of using the headers in its cache, it's going to pull all the headers for that group.
I observed this behaviour before I started using multiple machines, but it wasn't a huge issue - but now I sync the .pan2 and News directories to other machines using Dropbox, so having Pan decide to download all headers means that the group's file in the .pan2/articles directory grows to a fairly large size - which affects how much space is used on my Dropbox account and how long it takes to sync the data. I've been working around the issue by killing the task, deleting the group's headers, and telling Pan to download 14 days' worth of headers. But it's somewhat annoying to have to do that, so I thought I'd ask. I'm running Pan 0.135 on openSUSE 12.1. I also observed this behaviour on earlier 0.13x releases on earlier releases of openSUSE (back to at least 11.2).
