Just installed Jaunty on my Dell Latitude (1.8 GB Pentium, 1 GB RAM) and 
can't believe how slow it is. 3-5 second delay between clicking to 
expand xterm and when it expands, 2 second delay when using the up or 
down arrows to scroll, Mutt so slow responding to commands that at times 
I think it's frozen and have to bail out, even Alpine has a noticeable 
hesitation. Scrolling with the mouse wheel or the scroll bar is jerky 
and skips with the previously mentioned delay. Has anyone else 
experienced this or is the Holtzman Luck rearing it's head again?
