It’s no secret that HaRav Chaim Kanievsky zt”l was a renowned talmid chochom who had kol hatorah kulah at his fingertips.
In the following audio, recorded in 1988, HaRav Mordechai Gifter zt”l speaks of Rav Chaim’s phenomenal Torah knowledge, how he would make a siyum on kol hatorah kulah ever single year, and how everyone should aspire and work towards being a small reflection of Rav Chaim’s greatness.

Rav Gifter z’l speaks of the attainability of completing Shas during one’s yeshiva years. Unless something has changed in the last 40-plus years, a bachur goes through a winter zman kvetching over 15 blatt of gemora, rishonim, and achronim, and still can’t say what he learned over that period. Has the correct derech, as stated by Rav Gifter z’l, been recovered?
