Binary servers are 5 times slower than INN servers and randomly fail.
Pay/UnCensored INN servers properly update NewsGroups (to recent posts).

My INN servers ( Glorb.COM and Individual.NET ) need about 1 minute
( sometimes less ) to download 7,500 full articles (headers and bodies);
my binary servers ( AstraWeb.COM and BlockNews.NET ) are 5 times slower.

"Comp.OS.Linux.Advocacy" had less than 7,000 posts, last 30 days.
I pipeline 100 "Article" commands at a time.

To post, use I Glorb ( uncensored version ) or BlockNews;
because "Individual.NET" and "AstraWeb.COM" censor me.
"xsNews.NL" and "CheapNews.EU" also post OK, I think.
