 * I’m running this plugin (3.2.4)on my WP install, and experiencing some troubles
   lately, with some “out of memory” errors.
 * So i have started testing the plugin on my computer locally to speed up testing,
   enabling higher limits on memory usage and timeouts, basically restricted on 
   the “official” shared-server hosting.
 * As a result this is are the results to run the plugin on some 8,000 posts on 
   my computer:
 *     ```
       * Your sitemap was last built on June 4, 2010 1:11 pm.
       * Your sitemap (zipped) was last built on June 4, 2010 1:11 pm.
       * The building process took about 403.49 seconds to complete
       and used 93.25 MB of memory.
       ```
   
 * So that’s it, some 6 minutes running a LOT of memory consumption and, worst of
   all, 40/50% of CPU usage during the whole build process.
 * Wondering if this is by design and if there are any tweaks to lower down resources
   usage.
