Hmm, should be ok. What does VSoup say at the end of reception (there
must be a message like 'x connections established' or so).

You could also try 'vsoup -mM -t8 nntp://...' and 'vsoup -mM -t1
nntp://'. Check the throughput. If there is no significant
difference, then VSoup95 does not work as expected, although it should.

Unfortunately there is no leveling for the status message.
Nevertheless the status message is intended for tracing problems.
Wrong score files are very often a cause of trouble and I'm hoping to
give some debugging aid (and of course feed-back) how the score filters
are working.
