I wonder if one of you might have a helpful suggestion. Note the capitalized sentence in the message below. ------------------------------------------------------------ Date: 01/06/82 01:21:50 From: CBF To: OAF cc: KLH Re: energy digest #3004

That long, reptitive energy digest took well over 40 minutes of undiverted comsat attention to mail out. A lot of that is due to inexcusably small bit allocations being given out by hosts that should have a lot more memory to spare; I intend to do a little kicking here and there to see if it can be fixed, but that is not likely to change quickly. If energy is to continue as more than just a delayed mirror of the space mailing list, I would suggest that the load might have to be split among some more hosts. Look at the INFO-TERMS entry in NAME > for how to start doing this.

I WOULD HALP A LOT IF THE 4 PARC-MAXC PEOPLE WOULD AGREE TO A PSEUDO NAME TO BE REBROADCAST LOCALLY. They took 10 minutes just for that one host because it doesn't support XTO. ------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks,

Oded ---------------------- Forwarded since It may be of interest. Probably in the next iteration the real people aside from DIGEST-PEOPLE should be left out. Any real people who wish to be in on the discussion should request inclusion in the DIGEST-PEOPLE list.
