I never used Mdk 9, but I can tell you I was impressed with the speed of 10.0, 
both CE and Official. I revived an ancient (~6 years old) NT machine, Pentium 
II 400MHz, graphics card so old it's no longer supported by the vendor. I was 
surprised how responsive it is on such an old machine - practically 
instantaneous. It gets sluggish only if there are heavy background processes 
running, but that's to be expected.

Have you tried running top to see if there's something else chewing up your 
cpu? I've had some runaway kde processes a couple of times (most notably 
konqueror on certain web sites). 3D programs also kill my performance, 
because I only have s/w rendering.
