Hit F
Makes less work rather like tail(1). Once your inferior process has
finished you need to hit Ctrl-C and then q to quit from less(1).
You learns something new every day...
In a similar vein, I use G which jumps to the end-of-file. If there is
a lot of output less does nothing until it hits EOF and then just shows
you the end of the output. I suspect that of being quicker since it
won't spend any time scrolling output to the screen.
