Ubuntu seems running slow!
Hello,

My PC seems running slow:
Code:
OS32 system, Pentium(R)4---2.40Ghz, 1GB RAM, 80GB HD

I am running Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) alone in this box, which seems very slow to me. Is this normal?

Compared with my other PC (Running XP) with
Code:
1.99GHz AMD Athlon 3200+, 2GB RAM,500GB HD, XP and Mint dual system,

which is way much faster than this Ubuntu alone box.

I had thought the Ubuntu box would catch up with my XP box. Maybe a little bit slower because of the RAM, but there is big difference there. Thought to expand the RAM to 1.5GB (max volume), not sure worthy it or not.

Then I am thinking to figure out the right way to diagnosis or compare, although I did not compare the motherboard. Googled around, no clear answer about this. Any clue about it?

Thanks a lot!
