The thing I disliked about leafnode was the thousands of directories that it made. You can get rid of these by altering actsync.ctl so that the groups are never made. For instance I kill off all the microsoft groups :-) and those in languages a don't understand. I then setup newsx to only download those newsgroups that I'm, interested in. The big catch is that you have to edit some files to alter which newsgroups you download and I also never seem to see which new groups are created.
