[Pan-users] Pan brings PC to a standstill

[The GUIGuy]

I'd been using Pan for about a year, but it has progressively become 
more and more unusable.

Now if I get it to download the latest headers from a group and if there 
are more than 500 or so headers, Pan starts thrashing the hard disk, 
locking up resources and generally making the PC unusable.

As an experiment I let it run and it was still doing its stuff about 
three hours later.

Is this a known issue or am I on my lonesome here?

Thanks

Pierre
