Hello all,

I have just updated Emacs from git.  Since then, gnus is very slow
and/or unresponsive.  Specifically, if I open a group,
e.g. gmane.emacs.devel, it seems to be loading *all* the headers which
takes some time (several hundred MB) whereas it did not use to do
this.  Further, if I try to enter gmane.emacs.gnus.general in particular
(wanting to post this message), it gets stuck in retrieving or
processing a particular header.  Debug on quit gives:

No matter how long (or short) a time I wait, it's always that header
(84607) that it seems to be stuck on.

In any case, I have had a look at the git log and one commit (from March
2020 but only merged recently I guess as it is listed in between other
commits from the last 10 days) stands out:

,----
| commit 20add1cd22f9775a4475148b300cf2a4de4bd54a
| Author: Eric Abrahamsen <eric@ericabrahamsen.net>
| Date:   Tue Mar 17 20:53:05 2020 -0700
| 
|     Allow gnus-retrieve-headers to return headers directly
`----

Thoughts?

Thank you,
eric
