More minor nits. I found that updating the group buffer after getting new
mail is sometimes noticeably slow (a couple of seconds on an Ultra 1).
When I set debug-on-quit and did a C-g when it was grinding away, I got:
Signaling: (quit)
text-property-any(1 1600 gnus-group net\.religion\.policy)
gnus-group-list-groups(nil)
gnus-group-get-new-news(nil)
call-interactively(gnus-group-get-new-news)
That's one of the groups that didn't have any new articles (and hadn't in
my session). I'm guessing that the problem here is that I've got 400-odd
newsgroups in the group buffer and it's updating the text properties on
all of them each time it updates the buffer (or something like that).
Is there any way to make this go faster?
