Sorry about this almost off-topic post, but I am guessing there must be other readers of this group who use Thunderbird (in my case 1.0.2) to access it as gmane.comp.general.python.
I'm currently showing 344,548 articles in the group due to the gmane policy of permanent retention, and lately it seems to have started taking forever to switch from mailboxes to the newsgroup. Furthermore, the Thunderbird process's memory usage climbs from ~30MB reading mail to over 200MB reading the newsgroup. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it specific to my setup? Does anyone have a solution? regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC www.holdenweb.com PyCon TX 2006 www.python.org/pycon/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
