free -h is generally more readable, but...
It's RAM. You basically have a total of 2G ram on the system, you have
less than 500M available and are into swap by nearly 1G, so you're
swapping heavily. 2G is enough for a minimal install but browsers such
as firefox and chrome can easily use a lot of memory fast and trying to
run one on a 2G system while doing an install at the same time will get
you swapping and slow the system to a crawl.
To be clear, by "Centos 7 installation",
I meant a PC on which Centos 7 was installed.
In any case, Centos 7 has not always been this slow.
Presumably something has changed.
I've been living with this for several months,
but not forever.
I can run compilers and stuff without an internet connection,
so I could get some work done.
To get that output, I had free running in a loop and waited for
the freeze before copy and pasting.
I wasn't surprised by the result.
Occasionally top shows kswap0 (I think) in a D state.
