Hrm. The first thing that comes to mind is run with "-n -j 2". The -n part won't speed up a lot, the -j 2 will tell mass-check to use both processors. I'd also run with --progress so you can see how far it's gotten. 500MHz isn't super fast unfortunately. You may have to trim down the number of messages you're planning to process. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: God created anchovies; Satan put them on pizza.
