I use nnml for all of my emails.  All the individual groups are grouped
(for want of a better word) into a few topics (e.g. work & personal).
Then I can search a whole topic with a single command.  I use notmuch
which allows me to say "date:today" or "date:yesterday" (or specify an
actual range of dates etc.).  That suffices for me generally and I do
use splitting quite a bit.

TL;DR: use gnus search instead of the limit feature in gnus.
