I am having the same trouble with sorting taking a very long time on one particular group which is mainly pdf files: alt.binaries.e-book.magazines
which takes more than 1 minute on 600-700 posts. There is no indication when viewing the listed files that sorting is taking place until it actually does it. I am sorting on the Subject field only.
The same group in version 6.56 sorts instantly on more than 4000 posts
All other groups I use, mainly mp3 or jpg files sort instantly.
First noticed this happening in version 6.60
Show files is not an issue.
