How well does Vista or OSX 10.4 run on that same 10 year old pc?
Software changes to meet the abilities of hardware over time. If
you're trying to run new software on very old hardware, you're going
to experience slowness and other problems. It has nothing to do with
the software being stupid and inefficient. It is simply not designed
to run on said system.

Profiling should be done on any piece of software, regardless of how
fast you think it should just be. There's always room to make things
faster.
