Is there any chance this stuff can be sped up. For instance with
non-greedy regexps, optimized or not using regexps at all?
Doesn't Gnus have to scan over the buffer anyway? So why are these so

Since this is all user eye candy: It really should do stuff like this
lazily (yes, I know you hate that).
