I see especially slow header downloads when accessing one
particular newsgroup. Even if that group shows only a dozen unread
posts, it loads much more slowly than a groups with over a hundred.
elp shows the following for the fast groups:
Function Name
Call Count Elapsed Time Average Time
============================================================================
========== ============ ============
gnus-retrieve-headers 3
5.690393 1.8967976666
gnus-group-read-group 1
3.42949 3.42949
gnus-summary-read-group 1
3.429393 3.429393
gnus-summary-read-group-1 1
3.429363 3.429363
gnus-select-newsgroup 1
2.889938 2.889938
gnus-fetch-headers 1
2.650536 2.650536
gnus-cache-retrieve-headers 1
2.638718 2.638718
gnus-agent-retrieve-headers 1
2.637814 2.637814
The slow group shows:
Function Name Call Count Elapsed
Time Average Time
====================================================== ==========
============ ============
gnus-retrieve-headers 3 78.807254

Could fragmentation in .newsrc.eld be the source of the problem?
Thanks,
Patrick
