Subject: nntp groups downloading all headers on each entry
Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2012 13:39:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <871ugthfbq.fsf@ericabrahamsen.net> (raw)

I'm still reconsituting my gnus configuration, and with my current
(still minimal) setup I'm seeing weird behavior: On each entry of an
nntp group, I'm apparently downloading *all* headers for the group -- in
the case of orgmode or gnus, that's several megabytes and a good five
minutes. For each gnus session it only happens once per group, but the
next time I restart gnus I start downloading all over again.

Presumably this has something to do with the agent and caching, but I
don't know what. I have no customizations that mention "agent" or
"cache". My ~/News directory doesn't have much in it -- drafts and
queue, and one message in a "cache" directory. ~/.newsrc looks like this
right now:

gmane.emacs.bbdb.user: 1-3419
gmane.emacs.gnus.general: 1-82418
gmane.emacs.orgmode: 1-61739

And here is, for example, the gnus-related entry in my ~/newsrc.eld:

("gmane.emacs.gnus.general" 5 ((1 . 82418)) ((seen (82392 . 82403)
(82406 . 82414)) (reply 82394 82397 (82400 . 82401))))

Is it obvious to anyone what's going on?

Thanks,
Eric
