[Pan-users] Re: Possible crash when out of disk space while downloading group headers?

[CH Low]

Thanks for the quick reply.  I am still downloading from that particular
newsgroup.  It is up to 190,100 articles and still increasing, with
another reportedly 75% to go.  I will update this thread on my results.

However, one thing I notice is that my filesystem space doesn't seem to
decrease as this newsgroup is being downloaded.  The newsgroup does not
appear in .pan2/groups yet so I wonder where it is storing this
information.

For reference, another previously downloaded newsgroup,
.pan2/groups/alt.binaries.tv takes up roughly 1.4GB with roughly 500,000
articles.

Should i be making provisions to have enough fs space besides for .pan2,
i.e the swap partition?
