Just building the summary for that many articles will take a considerable amount of time, I think. The usual way to handle this, is that you only see unread articles when you enter a group. Then the newsreader only needs to fetch the articles that have arrived since you last entered the group, rather than everything. (And when you subscribe to a group, you usually start by catching up - i.e. marking all the old articles as read.) For comparison, Thunderbird suggests to get the newest 500 articles when entering a group for the first time; sort of the same thing.
