What do you expect from a group with 30.000.000+ messsages ?
Giganews retention period of three months or more isn't always a blessing, or 
even necessary.
When I downloaded all the headers (3G of headers alone) of that group pan 
eventually built a single group file of 1750 M !!!, and it's all stored in 
core just before that :-)
Not a bug but reaching the physical limits of your box, I guess.
