I don't know what would happen? Would I get "ghosts" in the old group, because nothing cleans out the NOV file? (and ideally also deletes the downloaded article, though I don't know that this happens today...?) If it only means that the moved articles won't be cached, then that's ok. That's the current behaviour anyway. > Maybe the best thing would be to try the speed improvements that I cut > out of the above (the ones that don't affect the features) first, to > see if they are sufficient for the people for whom speed is an issue. Well, on the other hand, the biggest speed improvements you could get on moves, would be to just tell the server to copy, delete the originals, and expunge the originals, without downloading a single article...
