[Pan-users] large groups not loading?

[Steven Adeff]

I'm having a problem with large groups (around a million posts) on my giganews 
account. Pan sits there forever trying to load it using tons of memory(0.6% 
cpu and 80.3% memory). I'm running Pan 14.2 (long time since a new version, 
any reason or am I missing something?) on an Athlon 1600+ with 512MB of ram

is this a common problem? is there a way to fix it?

thanks!
