Its just a frustration for those of us with less powerful machines.Much bigger mozilla now? more plugins, which you weren't using before? bigger mail files?
Red Hat does not have to write the software to include it in the
distribution. All I am saying you need to be more selective about what
you install. For example, the Mozilla loads maybe 5 times slower than
the Mozilla in 7.3. Why I don't know.
To be truthful I have been trying to pin down why RH 9 is so muchAgreed, RH9 is very sluggish in a number of scenarios - but OTOH fedora is much snappier than 7.3
slower than earlier distributions on the same hardware and I can't pin
it down. For example I has to triple the RAM (from 128 -> 384) to be
able to make RH 9 even mildly tolerable on my 450 MHZ machine at work
I would be glad to find someone who knows why this is happening. IThat typically indicates i/o issues - are you quite sure dma is enabled?
have looked and I am stumped. I get load factors of > 3 when top says
nothing is really running that is taking up more than a few percent of
CPU time.
