Under Unix, when directories are getting too large, operations on them
are also getting slow. Most likely candidate is control or if you
have control.cancel in active control/cancel in the spool. Rebuilding
the directory from time to time helps (e.g. mv /news/control/cancel
/news/control/bye.bye && rm -fr /news/control/bye.bye). There is also
somewhere a patch floating around that divides control/cancel in
further subdirectories which makes each of those smaller.
