No, I think the speedup is due to my patch the other day that make
Gnus use `nnimap-retrieve-groups' to find out if there is new news
instead of `nnimap-request-group' which it used earlier.

Gnus still request the active info for all groups, otherwise Sieve
and/or "plussing" wouldn't work because they can deliver mail into any
mailbox.

Hopefully not. :-)   Tell me if that's the case.
