Is it ? Well sorry, I meant that I also experience Linux/Gnome's overall
responsiveness to be often very poor compared to their Windoze counter
part. I got told that for everybody else, it was the other way around,
and that I must have some problem in my Linux, so I thought that maybe I
have sub-optimal drivers for my motherboard nForce chipset, but, I later
installed VMware, where all and any Windows apps still run at the speed
of light compared to Gnome apps, all within Ubuntu, which is quite
strange to experience.
Like Outlook compared to Evolution, Gedit and Notepad, Explorer and
Nautilus, OOo and MS Office, Dreamveawer and Screamer/Bluefish (which
aren't even WYSYWIG at that), etc, etc.

I have progressively got used to it over the months, and is hardly an
annoyance in practice, but I would still be delighted if this issue was
solved in the coming years, maybe thanks to a major or complete rewrite
of Gnome, for version 3.0, or whatever.
