SYNOPSIS:
[brief description of the problem and where it is located]
slow on entering groups
DESCRIPTION:
[detailed description]
When I select a newsgroup that has more than a handful of
msgs waiting, there's a considerable wait before the list of
messages appears. Why not get the first 20-30 messages, and
present the list to me, while the rest of the traffic goes on
in the background?
REPEAT BY:
[what you did to get the error]
SAMPLE FIX:
[preferred, but not necessary. Please send context diffs (diff -c -b)]
Thanks.---RC
