I just finished setting that up:

  New user on linux machine
  new user on gmail

 and it works as expected.

So something in my regular user setup is messing up the imap part.

I actually used the same .gnus file in the above mentioned new setup,
just editing names and mail locations.  

With the new test setup, mail sent to gmail shows up on gnus just as
soon as it does on gmail... seems to be no lag at all.

I've compared the new users settings on gmail (all default) to the old
user settings and they compare line for line.
 
So its apparently not ~/.gnus or gmail settings that is the problem.
Still fishing around so it appears it might take a while... I'm really
kind of lost as to what to be looking at or for.

I guess .emacs would be the next probability since the new test user
used no .emacs at all.
