Subject: Re: hidden buffers for async
Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2005 18:37:39 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1Dgs8B-0003Pt-Kk@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E1DgY7j-00085d-9s@kanga> (message from Nic Ferrier on Fri, 10 Jun 2005 02:15:49 +0100)

    But IMAP can be asked to download lots of files at once and will be
    chunking them all. So I wanted to have lots of chunk buffers, one for
    each file transfer. When the files are downloaded they can be put
    straight into the correct mode for displaying the file.

    So there might be 10 or 20 (or 1000) buffers all recieving chunks of
    files from IMAP.

Creating that many buffers might cause various sorts of overload
for Emacs.  Can't you use one buffer for all the information,
and sort it out at the end?
