RE: [leafnode-list] Takes hours to dl headers!

[Ed <mbhsys@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I started this thread a couple of weeks ago.

In the meantime, I upgraded LN from 1.9.32 to 1.9.44.rc3 and have been
trying to see if I could find any issues that might affect the problem.

To recap, it takes hours to download headers for 11 newsgroups.  

I have set delaybody = 1, maxfetch = 1000 and initialfetch = 100.

This has shortened the time to download (headers only) to about 60 minutes
but only if I run FN every couple of hours and don't ask for more than 1
body per group just to keep the groups active.

Downloading headers to my newsreader takes less than 1 minute for the same
11 groups from the same newsserver.

I don't see any errors in the logs.  I have been starting FN manually with
the -vvv switch so that I can watch for error messages.  There don't appear
to be any.  All I see is delays of several seconds between each downloaded
header.

Something must be causing FN to be many times slower than my newsreader.
Perhaps my newsserver doesn't respond properly to the protocols used by FN
but that's just a guess.

Is there anything I can do to try to resolve this problem?

Thanks,  Ed
