That happens to me.  I think it's a bug.  When loading a large number
of headers, about 3/4 of the way through, the GUI loses it, and I just
have to wait until the headers from that group are loaded.  Pan will not
respond until the headers are all loaded.  I have to wait around 3 minutes,
at most (not 20), but I have 3G of ram, which probably helps. It doesn't
freeze my whole system -- I can go to another window and do something
else -- it just affects Pan.
