| I think it is OK. If not, please post your solution.

I've been doing it for a while, though instead of saving every group (which
is slow) I programmatically save every five groups exited, like so:

(add-hook 'gnus-startup-hook 'rat:gnus-startup-hook)
(defun rat:gnus-startup-hook ()
  (setq rat:gnus-selected-newsgroups 0)
  (setq rat:gnus-incremental-save-newsrc t)
  (setq rat:gnus-incremental-save-newsrc-threshold 5)
  )

(add-hook 'gnus-save-newsrc-hook 'rat:gnus-save-newsrc-hook)
(defun rat:gnus-save-newsrc-hook ()
  (if rat:gnus-incremental-save-newsrc
      (setq rat:gnus-selected-newsgroups 0)))

(add-hook 'gnus-exit-group-hook 'rat:gnus-exit-group-hook)
(defun rat:gnus-exit-group-hook ()
  (if rat:gnus-incremental-save-newsrc
      (progn
	(setq rat:gnus-selected-newsgroups (+ rat:gnus-selected-newsgroups 1))
	(if (> rat:gnus-selected-newsgroups
	       rat:gnus-incremental-save-newsrc-threshold)
	    (gnus-save-newsrc-file)))))
