 Replying to [ticket:14425 dangayle]:
 > If you put too large of a feed into the function fetch_feed() a memory
 error will occur, flushing everything in the buffer, and WP will exit with
 a fatal error.
 >
 > Increasing the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT fixes the problem, but ideally, shouldn't
 the feed be buffered away from WP, so that whoever controls the provider
 end of the feed doesn't have the power to cripple your blog?

 To me, that mostly sounds like a great plugin idea to break splogs. ;-)
