gnus-read-active-file's value is some
gnus-check-new-newsgroups's value is ask-server

Can I request a bit more granularity in gnus version numbering, since
I have two machines with the "same" gnus version 5.13 but one works as
expected (RHEL6, Emacs/23.1) and the other one (Fedora 19, Emacs/24.3)
is horribly slow?

Of course one alternative is that the "fast" machine is actually doing
just the same work, it just happens to be on a much faster network.

Also, do you have ideas on correcting the nntp connection error
I detailed in my earlier message?

In any case, thank you for maintaining gnus!
