How many years ago was the discussion centering on using a SQL  
database to handle the metadata?  :-)

On-disk storage would solve the memory footprint problem but come at  
the price of much slower response time.

I think you should try 0.14.2.91 and find 2e6 to 2.5e6 messages was  
about the limit with a 2GB process size limit. 0.114 is two to three  
times more efficient. So at least one "major overhaul" has recently  
happened. Thanks Charles!
