Why has my gnus becomes so slow?

In the last week or so gnus has become absurdly slow to start up (or
get new news).  Typically it now takes over 5 minutes while gnus is
reading the active file from the news server, and it always displays
messages "Reading directory" for each of my nnml folders.  I've
checked that gnus-read-active-file is set to its default value 'some,
and that gnus-check-new-newsgroups is set to its defualt value
'ask-server.  Also gnus-nov-is-evil is set to nil.  I've tried
regenerating the nov databases (.overview) for the nnml directories,
but it doesn't seem to make a difference.  Any suggestions?  I'm
running gnus 5.10.6.
