Amazing.  I could understand that it takes a while to fetch the
headers (if you have fetch old headers set to t, Gnus will fetch all
headers even if you do 1 RET on a group).  But apparently, fetching
headers is fast for you, as is displaying the summary buffer.  Only
when hitting RET or SPC or mouse-2 on an article, that takes so long,
right?

Is your ~/Mail accessed via NFS by your Gnus?  Or.  Hm.  Wait a
minute.  Are you using nnfolder?  Maybe Gnus needs to load the whole
group into memory as one file in order to display the first article?
