This additional information was sent to someone as a reply. The problem isn't opening the group as I rarely select more that 100 articles. It's selecting the first article once I'm in the group. I have this in my .gnus file so I get to choose which article to select: ;; Don't select the first article automatically (setq gnus-auto-select-first nil) Whichever article I select then takes about 10-15 seconds to display. All articles selected after that are almost instantaneous whether they are above or below the first article. -- Eze Ogwuma
