If that is true, I'd go and ask the Gnus devs for the reason. Maybe in
most cases querying the server is faster than processing the .overview
file...

Well, as a last resort that could be done, but I'm in favor of
delegating the issue to the Gnus devs. The problem will bite you in
normal Gnus usage, too. (Ok, at least when searching for/restricting
with a given message id. Scoring is also a candidate using
message-ids.)
Do you want to raise a question at d...@gnus.org, or should I do this
evening?
Bye,
