Yes, I am using GNOME which is my favourite window style. Do you mean GNOME is heavier than others, such like KDE? If the hung-up is really caused by GNOME, I would consider changing my X window style from GNOME to others. BTW, is it possible to download an upgraded version of GNOME? I still like GNOME...
Thanks.
