Too large values of `gnus-registry-max-entries' can be harmful
(fragmentation of memory?), I wonder if this can potentially be the case
here.

I'm also not sure if scaling is a good idea at all.  The value I chose
will still make gc happen much less frequently even if your registry is
huge.  So it's still a win.  If your value is too large, the final
cleanup may take longer as necessary -- who has experience with this
problem -- anybody?


Thanks,

Michael.
