In principal hat could be it, but how do I find that the other site
disconnected?
Since yesterday 11:40 I had one time that it took long:
2010-04-07 02:46:59: Start with getting new news
03:17:27: Done with getting new news (0:30:28)
Normally mail/news is fetched every 30 minutes. But only when Emacs is
idle. I have the feeling that in the past it happened more often, but I
am not sure about that.

Try a g and immediately C-g so that Gnus does not finish but you
terminate the fetching.
