It tends to feel slower than my other machine, eg, in place like
opening Eclipse for example System A takes about 10 seconds longer
than on System B.... It seems to sit there and do nothing for about 10
seconds then Eclipse splash pops up and starts loading. I also find
the system moving around through folders in the home directory slower
and not as responsive as System B. Just doesn't feel like it's
performing to it's hardware specifications.
