Re: Slow system



The outputs of "top" and "ps" commands will also be useful. It is possible that there are too many active processes trying to use the machine resources.

I have recently installed Red Hat Linux 9. It boots fine and there appear to be no problems, but the GUI runs EXTREMELY slow (openoffice takes 3-4 minutes to come up). The computer has a Celeron processor running at 667 Mhz and the hard drive is plenty big. Any suggestions?


As the root user, run "free" and post the results here.  Also run the
"dmesg" command and see if there's anything funky in the kernel logs.

Check the /var/log/messages file for weirdness, too.
