GUESSING is exactly the right word, because I was only going on past
experience that the symptoms he described were ones of memory exhaustion.
I noted this long before there was a --enable-find-leaks, so I did not
know that that had to be enabled for Lynx to try to free memory upon exit.

More specifically, I used to have Lynx read large (200+Kb) files, and
found that when I exited it would take 5, sometimes as much as 20 minutes
for Lynx to exit and for the command prompt to return.  Since then I
have learned to use most as a reader, so I have not experienced the problem
for a long time.
