  Apparently you didn't read my post with the subject changed to
"data on cla messages, was Re: Ada 95 for an ARM-based bare board?"
Asymptotically the size of messages decreases to zero when a thread dies.
In the short term, however, quote growth in CLA is 14.8% (based on 261
messages) from one message with quotes over its referent with quotes.
Total body length shrinks to 97.9% on successive messages.  The
exponential fits the data quite a bit better than a linear model.
  There's a story that an early professor of aeronautical engineering
proved that bumblebees can't fly.  His calculations were probably
correct, so it must have been his model that was wrong.

  I'm sure that the value of certain people's posts is directly proportional
to their size.  That's usually not the case, however.
