Would you have been marking 40,000 headers at a time?

No; this is why I asked the OP earlier in my post what we was doing with
40K articles at a time.

Then again, the kill-filters I had on that computer were getting rid of
a lot of messages in the most active group I read -- rec.sport.tennis.
But I think that even at its worst, 40K posts *might* be about enough to
cover the start of the French Open through to the end of Wimbledon,
which is six weeks.
