Well, the early BETA-3 was missing some packages (transmission
error) They were there but filled with nulls and did not
install.
AFAIK, the later BETA-3 is identical to 7.1 final. If you DLed
the earlier one, you were missing some packages. Look at the
cooker archives to see what they are and use rpm to remove them
one at a time until your performance is as it was, then tell
someone with the new bug-tracking system (soon available).
FWIW, I don't see that problem here, but then I never use Gnome.
I am far too busy with KDE and with supporting it for my users.
When the decision was made between the two, KDE had many more
apps, and Gnome was very slow (and so were our computers) Now
with a year of training/familiarity of the non-computer literate
invested, we are unable to switch, and Gnome still seems slow
except for Helixcode.
