Re: slow woes

[Alfred A. Aburto Jr.]

(1) Are you using the GUI or CLI client?
(2) If GUI, are you blanking the screen after say 1 minute?
(3) Do you have all computer power saving features turned off?
(4) How much memory do you have?
(5) There are other things that can slow you down, but I don't remember them
all ...

Something seems to be way off for you to be getting 200+ hours with a P-II
400MHz ...
