I'm running Mandriva 2006. I booted up this morning and for some reason, performance has just been extremely slower; my computer's literally crawling as I type this message.
I've been running Bluefish, Opera, Firefox, Gedit, a few terminals, OpenOffice, Evolution, Apache, MySQL server, an FTP client plus a few more light programs all simultaneously on GNOME for a few weeks now, and this sort of slow-down has never happened before. Could it be some system maintainance cron job I don't know of? (I did a pstree but I'm not "expert" enough to make anything of it yet.) I added the system resources monitor to the GNOME taskbar to gauge resource usage. Processor usage jumps to 100% every 10 minutes or so and stays there for a couple of minutes, and RAM and swap usage are both pushing 100%. Anybody in the know of what could be going on?
