It's not just the number of groups etc. but also what servers you need to access. The latter is not specifically an issue with gnus in that any other MUA would suffer as well; the problem is that if gnus is taking a long time retrieving emails, I cannot do anything else in the meantime. Emacs is my window manager... and single threaded. An aside: gnus' nnmaildir implementation is *very* slow under some circumstances, to do with having to resequence all the articles in a group. But nnml is very good generally. -- Eric S Fraga via gnus (Emacs 30.0.50 2023-08-14) on Debian 12.1
