What desktop do you use? GNOME? Would you mind trying something lighter?
I use fluxbox on my P4 2.0GHz 512MB RAM machine. I can run 2-3 apps at
a time. Problem happens more while switching between apps since my
NVidia graphics card stopped working and onboard graphics is pathetic.

Another thing I have been using to diagnose the problem is to use
utilities like top, vmstat and iostat.
