It's probably something unrelated to Pine. I regularly use pine to read a mailbox that contains more than 12,000 messages and tag, limit, or view some of them. It's not that the load is insignificant, but even with the following: last pid: 38479; load averages: 1.99, 1.42, 1.03 up 0+02:59:24 02:08:40 54 processes: 3 running, 51 sleeping CPU states: 36.2% user, 0.0% nice, 60.3% system, 3.5% interrupt, 0.0% idle Mem: 52M Active, 347M Inact, 77M Wired, 22M Cache, 60M Buf, 992K Free Swap: 1000M Total, 26M Used, 974M Free, 2% Inuse It takes less than 20 seconds wall clock time for pine to open and sort the huge mailbox. I'm using pine-4.44 on FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT, btw. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
