My machine is a PDP-11/70 and can be considered a "small" machine
because any process can only address 128Kb of memory. This is a
real limitation, I can't run vnews, for example. If you let the
number of newsgroups get too large my machine will start dumping
core. As a result of that the following sites:
	fortune, dual, sco, onyx, resonex, visia, cae780, ubvax,
	megatest, pyramid, zentec and several other machines
who get news from me will be unhappy. Likewise, if I cut back on some
newsgroups, all the above mentioned sites will be deprived.

That doesn't seem fair, does it?

(I only feed fortune,dual,sco,onyx,resonex,visia,and zentec
directly. The others are fed indirectly.)
