[Mailman-Developers] External subscriber lists in 2.1

[J C Lawrence]

Barry,

In 2.1 when used with external subscriber storage (eg SQL), will the
new equivalent of qrunner request and load the entire subscriber DB
onto the heap prior to broadcast?

<<Yeah, I'm cheating and being lazy on not checking the source
myself>>

Reason: This poses scaling problems for lists with very large
numbers of subscribers.  I'd suggest paging thru the set in blocks.

ObExcuse: Chap on -users asking about millions of subscribers.
