Subject: many articles
Date: 19 Sep 1998 12:50:12 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3iuik2azf.fsf@lemmon.iomega.com> (raw)


I have a group with 11000 email messages in it.  I'm running on a
machine with 32M of ram and 128M of memory...  I invoked the
summary buffer of the group and it took an hour....  thrashing my
machine horribly.

Is it not a good idea to have so many articles in a group?  It's
just killed my machine...
