It appears to be possible with JPluck (version 2.0.9a) rather than the
Plucker Desktop - see http://jpluck.sourceforge.net/

I have gone down to level 6 and am currently at about page 6500 of
16000, with the "total" count increasing all the time. I suspect this
could run for a couple of hours more ...

I suspect the success might also be due to my running Linux and having
1GB of RAM plus a 2Mb/sec broadband connection! (The various flavours of
Windows, in my experience, tend to throw a fit on doing "massive
anything").
