That's the same problem I notice.  'g' takes long.  I do have a number
of nnfolder groups and access them via NFS.  One has a size of 60 MB
and each 'g' seems to look at this file.  This might have been a
bootstrap problem (my partition was full) and since then I reverted to
an older gnus version.  Simon, does this make sense?  I'll try again
the newer version when I have time to wait for bootstrapping/'g',
