Hi,
I didn't manage to expire the articles in a rather busy newsgroup, so
I decided to re-build the message database with
gnus-agent-regenerate. This command kept running for over an hour,
with messages flashing through the minibuffer like "Regenerating
NOV... Sorting... Messages not in ascending order" driving up the
system load to high values. Now I have stopped
this (C-g), to me this looks like something is wrong.
Is this maybe related to the problems with messages numbered -1 I
mentioned in here before?
Michael

This command kept running for over an hour, Give it more time. Maybe overnight? Or over the weekend? What's the size of your agent directory?

Okay... This is the *Messages* buffer after about one hour work on comp.emacs. After maybe 5 minutes of work, the same buffer looked very similar (except for that .url/history thing at the end).

His .overview files contained several entries whose article numbers contained over 30 digits. I've now modified gnus-agent-regenerate-group to detect and delete such entries.
