That means, that your > gnus-thread-latest-date uses about 80 times less CPU cycles than mine ! I am not sure if elp reports cpu time or elapsed (wall clock) time. Also, remember that my system has 8 cpu cores and large memory. Bogomips alone is not a full measure of system capability. What storage system are you using? I.e. do you have a slow disk?

How much memory does your system have?
