I've found this to be sort of an on-again off-again sort of thing. A versions back nnvirtual was working as smoothly as it ever had. Now it takes forever (>15 minutes) to load the nnvirtual group I have, no matter what the unread article counts are in the component groups. I have successfully loaded nnvirtual groups of up to around 2000 articles in the past. Here is a list of what else doesn't appear to work: M-g is broken. With previous behavior, one could read one of the nnvirtual component groups, then move the cursor to the nnvirtual group and hit M-g and the article count would be reduced by the number of articles read in the component group. This is not true now. Nnvirtual component groups get articles with strange markings. I am entering component groups of an nnvirtual group that have articles marked ``!''. This is a difficult one to track down since I never mark articles in those groups and the behavior does have any regularity that I could determine. It may be related to doing M-g, which is the only operation other than G E that I can reasonably do with nnvirtual groups right now. Both of these two problems have arisen relatively recently. I too have noticed wildly variant header loading times, and the only thing I can think of is that it has something to do with crossposted articles among the component groups. I have not been able to quantify it in a reasonable fashion though. -- steve@miranova.com baur Unsolicited commercial e-mail will be proofread for $250/hour.
