Check out the GNOME documentation (which should be installed on your 
system) for some performance enhancing ideas. Click on your GNOME menu,
then select "Help." From there click "Desktop" then "System Administration
Guide." There is a section called "Improving Performance" (Chapter 9),
which should help a little.
