I now use gnus exclusively. Purely subjectively, it *feels* faster than rn on my machines. Even if GNUS feels faster than rn, there's a program that feels even faster and that is nn. The reason I'm still using GNUS and not nn is, that I'm feel more familiar with the key bindings in GNUS and the overall method of handling articles. And I'm using GNU Emacs all the time when I'm working, so it is very handy to edit files, read news and handle mail all with the same program. Earlier I had to jump between programs, which sometimes got very frustrating when waiting for things to load up.
