First off, a big thanks for all of your good work on Drupal, most recently and impressively with Devel and Theme Developer. And second, another round of applause for coming to the rescue on this issue that's been driving us a bit nuts. We'll give this a shot on Monday and drop you a line to let you know how it turns out.

I met Bob Lyons at Berkman conference yesterday and he pointed me to your fine blog. Your writing is entertaining and I am enjoying following the site's rebirth. I adore some of the WGBH shows, and want to see WGBH educating millions of people. American Experience makes me happy. NOVA makes me happy (most recently for me, this <a href="http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/id/" rel="nofollow">Intelligent Design debunker</a>. So, about your drupal issues. - i committed a workaround for that devel memory leak and issued a new release (6.1.8). - for cron timeout, i suggest writing your own script that has the same two lines as index.php at the top. then you call that script from cron and run it through command line php so it doesn't time out. if you start running a lot of these scripts, or are a command line guy, check out drush module. it is the CLI for drupal. I'm happy to answer questions via email about your project. Don't bang your head against the wall too much - just email me. I can come by GHB offices from time to time as I live in Arlington, MA.
