If you really have so many tasks, something is not right. Normally, most
of the tasks are really optional and do not need to be reviewed often.
Only really important tasks should be reviewed regularly. Those can be
marked, say, as [#A] priority and reviewed in special agenda view/sparse
tree.

I also find it useful to apply spaced repetition for some lower-priority
tasks I really do not want to forget by accident.
