But does leaving a big news group (as opposed to a mail group) incur the same delays? (The original poster reported the problem with mail groups, not news groups.) I doubt it, since the slowdown I'm seeing is due to gnus-driven expiration. If leaving a news group is slow also, that's probably a different problem.
