What do you mean by slow? I did a top, and tin was taking 0% CPU time.
Or was it doing transfers with the server?

I don't understand. When doing a catchup, tin shouldn't mark the
crossposted versions as read since they haven't been read. This
is particularly important when an article is crossposted to a
low-bandwidth group and a high-bandwidth group (or a group on a
less important topic). In the latter one, I don't have the time
to read everything, so that I often do a catchup there without
checking in details first. Or there could be an option concerning
the catchup behavior.
