I'm seeing some weird behavior linked to insane memory consumption.
E.g. my Gnus session tends to grow to more than 2GB and then become
unusage and unkillable (or close enough: in D state, "kill -9" isn't
enough to make it stop use CPU, tho I guess that CPU use is really due
to something like the OS being in the process of dumping the core file,
tho I don't see any left over core files).

I did manage to attach to it and get a few backtraces (with
a breakpoint on mmap) before it was too late, and bidi_shelve_cache
showed up in most of the backtraces (like 5 out of 8, maybe): not
a strong indictment, but at least a lead worth following until I get
more data.
