The load isn't very complicated, usually just gnome 2.4 and mozilla firebird running. If I then do anything that requires lots of cpu, like a compile of a program, the interactivity drops fast. On the dual machine I have also experienced a *HUGE* increase in the time for "portupgrade -ar" to complete. I am not familiar with how portupgrade works, but it seems to spawn a few make's and sort's, but I am not sure why it is currently using 3 hours instead of 10 minutes to complete! (This was tested when there was no packages to upgrade, which shouldn't take long) Both machines (this dual and the one at school) are running with a libmap.conf in order to use libkse, is this perhaps affecting the performance of ULE? I am not sure how useful this is to you, but if you have any other pointers as to what I should look at just ask. -- Morten Rodal
