news 2.10,
I do a 
% readnews -n net.unix-wizards -x
and it waits a long, long time before I get a response.
The timing shows about 57seconds system time and about 3 seconds user
time.  On our system now, the filenames for the unix-wizards news articles
are up into the 3000's.  On groups where the number is very low,
like 200, the above commands takes very little time.  

Does anyone have a fix for this problem?
