Getting a drink every time you quit a group could cause other problems 
than RSI, I guess. :-)

Are you using total-expire?  I use auto-expire and have no speed
problems.  Once a month or so, I do 

M-: (setq gnus-total-expirable-newsgroups ".") RET C-c M-C-x

and get rid of stuff that might have escaped auto-expiry.  This last
is quite slow, but bearable when it's not the norm.
