Ok. I can see why nnimap is slow on `g'.
I've included below the *imap-log* on my fresh, almost-empty Gmail
account from this command:
(nnimap-request-list "imap.gmail.com")
As we can see, it first issues a LIST command, and then issues an
EXAMINE for each folder, totally synchronous. It takes 1.5s for me, and
there's no there there.
I'm guessint that EXAMINE is the equivalent of NNTP GROUP -- it selects
the group, and then it does a "FETCH 1,* UID" for the groups that says
that is has "EXISTS"...
Perhaps I should just read the IMAP RFC instead of guessing. :-)
Anyway, this has to be painfully slow if you have lots of folders and
high latency.
