My mistake; it over wrote the database with the initial work files after
htdig had dumped core; in other words I should not have risked the good
database by running rundig before making sure each binary would run

350 MHz Pentium, 256 MB RAM, 512 MB VM, BSDI 4.01

All documents are local; they are not pulled over the network.

I am compiling with profiling as I write;P I will try another dig after
the current dig is finished in a few hours.  More stats will be
forthcoming;)
