I'm not saying "everything" just one message between each server.
I don't know about you, but I only have 4 servers here, so that just
adds 3 messages to each `g', which seems pretty reasonable.

Currently, Gnus often hangs on some nntp connection while the echo area
might keep saying something like "received 34k from imap.bla.bla".
