Hi!

After discovering the elp profiling package I tracked down the most
time consuming actions of my daily Gnus usage.  It's entering groups
with lots of unread articles with scoring turned on.  I use scoring on
head and body.  Why can't Gnus just fetch the whole article once?

,----[ ELP results of entering two groups with 300+ articles ]
| gnus-request-head          653         40.898979     0.0626324333
| gnus-request-body          653         27.745753000  0.0424896676
`----

Another idea came to my mind.  Can score files be byte-compiled?  I
tried, but Gnus didn't like the format.  Maybe it doesn't make sense
anyway, as Gnus is spending more time on fetching the articles rather
than applying score rules.

Cheers, Ray
