As ajax says, check if you're getting software rendering of GNOME Shell,
which is likely to be slow: if so you can force fallback mode from a VT,
much faster than trying to get through the control center, with this
command:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session session-name 'gnome-fallback'
run it as user - not root - then log out and back in again.
Well, I'm actually running KDE, though I initially opened Gnome and had
the same issues.
Aside from that, though, there is a known bug with the kernel in Alpha
which causes slowness on some systems, it's possible it affects
VirtualBox 'machines' too. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=795050 . The latest kernel
build fixes that issue:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-2304/kernel-3.3.0-0.rc4.git1.4.fc17
so grab that and see if it helps.
I'm running yum update at this moment, and it did pull in a new kernel.
It's taking forever (44 installed so far out of 252 updates), but, I'll
report back on the results. I also will re-run Guest Additions install
using Andre's tip, and I'll report those results as well. I will reboot
after the yum update finishes, just to isolate one 'fix' from the other.
