OK, so you have gnus-activate-level set to 1 above which means that
`gnus-activate-level' is a variable declared in Lisp.
-- loaded from "gnus-start"
Value: 3
Documentation:
*Groups higher than this level won't be activated on startup.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Setting this variable to something low might save lots of time when
you have many groups that you aren't interested in.
When you subscribe a group it is set to gnus-level-default-subscribed
which is 3 by default.
You may gain some mileage out of reading the node Group Levels
carefully.
