Could be lots of things. /usr/portage/sys-process contains some tools like htop and iotop. bonnie and bonnie++ can benchmark the HDrive. could be in the installation. Maybe sync and update a few times to ensure all is clean. lshw will give you detailed listing of your hardware. Research (google) the components (cpu, ram, disk) to see if any are slow performers. If your running KDE4 it could be anakonda (spelling?). Just start eliminating what is could be, and that's a large list.... hth, James
