Wait untill the code to do this is written (it's being worked on IIRC).
It might be in 2.3.

I doubt it, as the info files aren't looked at _that_ much, also you
will have problems  with large directrories elsewhere in the system, eg
in the docq, sendq etc, which are probably irmpacting performance harder.

How big is your info directory?  How many files are in it?

Absolutly.  A quick hack solutions (and tailing xferlog counts IMHO)
is a reasonable short term solution.  

Unfortunatly, until I fix my computer at home I'm not going to be a 
position to look at the code in any depth and fix the problem 
``properly'' - however, there are people here who are better 
C++ programmers than me, and thus better able to decide what a 
``proper'' fix would be.  [ not hard, I admit, to be a better C++
programmer than me ]
