This looks suspicious: gnus-fetch-old-headers t From the documentation: "This feature can seriously impact performance it ignores all locally cached header entries. Setting it to t for groups for a server that doesn't expire articles (such as news.gmane.org), leads to very slow summary generation." I have nil here. I'm pretty sure this is the culprit. Setting this twice seems odd: gnus-keep-backlog 'nil gnus-keep-backlog '0 I have it set to 20. I think 'nil and '0 are weird values to use - nil or 0 would make more sense, but keeping the default 20 maybe even more :-) Best regards, Adam -- "It's like somebody with obsessive-compulsive Adam Sjøgren disorder constantly rearranging the names to fit a...@koldfront.dk into some sort of perfect ontology they have in their heads." _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
