Entering a group with, say, a 1000 articles is awful slow.
I suspect that the reason is the check for duplicates.
How do I disable it?
gnus-summary-ignore-duplicates?
gnus-suppress-duplicates?
what else?

PS. Gnus reports 39558 articles in my INBOX (actually, I only have 167
    messages there).  In particular, this means that there is no way for
    me to enter the group (see above).  There have been plenty of talk
    about making Gnus re-index an imap folder.  Has anything been done?
