| 1 | I just finished installing Gentoo on a Dell Vostro 1320 laptop. It |
| 2 | has a 2.2Ghz Core Duo CPU, 3GB RAM, and a 7200RPM hard drive. |
| 3 | Navigating within firefox is pretty slow. It's the response time of |
| 4 | the application, not the network. It's much slower than my previous |
| 5 | laptop which has much weaker specs. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | I noticed the HD light comes on when the system is pausing in firefox |
| 8 | sometimes. I don't have any swap at all, I'm using the CFQ, and /tmp |
| 9 | is mounted on tmpfs. Can anyone suggest where to look? |
