i subscribe to four newsgroups, and overall, oe does a good job of loading those newsgroups fast.

but, one newsgroup has over 40,000 posts in the archive (or so i read from the total), and oe takes a while to switch from this problematic group to another or close the program from this newsgroup. i clocked it today to take fourty-five seconds.

any advice on how to shorten this time, or eliminate it? without suggesting use a web-based reader, please.

thanks in advance,
wolff
