Granted, gnus does a lot more than keeping track of read/unread state of
each message. But that's all I need for these big groups, and that's
already stored at the server side. So I thought there could be some way
to tell gnus not to try to be too smart here, without hurting
performance. Killing the groups does something like that, but then gnus
also loses track of unread counts.
Cheers
