large article lists

Good morning all, is there anything that can be done to improve
performance with a group list that has a number of groups with a large
number of articles

Pan seems to slow and freeze and sometimes crashes when processing
article counts that get above a relatively small size--is there a
memory constraint somewhere in the code, or can more RAM be allocated
to the program, or is there just a limit to the size of the text files
that Pan can process without issue?



thanks and any help appreciated,


rikm
