I had a similar setup to this.  However, "long ramp-up time" is a kind
way to describe the effect this had on my system.  I have a cablemodem
and an occasionally-wonky provider.  It took over an hour for pgnus to
grab all the NoCeM crap at startup, and the process was consuming over
a hundred megs of RAM.  In fact, several of my processes died with bus
errors while pgnus was sucking up resources.  I've disabled it for now
with the hopes that maybe an upcoming revision will work a lot better.
