What does cause the load? debbugs-get-bugs or debbugs-get-status? I
suspect the latter one, which could carry an arbitrary number of
bugnumbers.

I believe, this shall be implemented in the frontend Lars is working
on. debbugs-get-bugs returns the bug numbers, and before calling
debbugs-get-status, the frontend could ask (like in gnus):
How many articles from gmane.emacs.devel (available 140599, default 200):
Btw, for debian.org such a restriction would be even more important:
(let ((debbugs-port "debian.org"))
(debbugs-newest-bugs 1))
=> (632453)
Best regards, Michael.
