Subject: Unacceptably slow entry into large nntp group
Date: Sun, 23 May 2004 13:02:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m33c5r4ait.fsf@home.gmurray.org.uk> (raw)
gnus (latest CVS) has become unacceptably slow entering an nntp group
(local server) which has a lot (80000) unread messages. Knowing that
generating the summary for all the unread messages would be slow, I
selected to only read the latest 100. I have used this technique over
the last few weeks to catch up with other groups (but I had also
fallen behind with keeping gnus up-to-date). I do not know how long
it would have taken to complete as i aborted (C-g) after 1 hour and
20mins of the messages "Finding Sort Keys" and "Reordering Buffer"
alternating and emacs using 95% CPU.
