See the text attachment...
Once I posted this to "SuSE" mailing list, but no
enough attention paid to it;
I am not sure that this performance issue is due to
KDE, because some people believe that this only
pertains to SuSE (not KDE).

I don't know how much effect it can have,
I don't know how many times it has been commented,
I don't know what can I do for an improvement,
But I know...
Working with a computer is not enjoyable when it responds slow!

Also note:
- I am shouting not because I hate linux, but because I hate negligences hurled at it \
                so far!
- I know many people will suggest me to have a fast xxxx MHz CPU: No, I suggest \
programmers to test their programs on an xxx MHz CPU to see what they have created!


These are my computer specifications:

Ultra high speed CPU: AMD K6-2+ at 550 MHz,
Extra high end GPU: nVIDIA RivaTNT 16MB PCI,
Super high speed SDRAM: 512MB PC133,
Seagate 120GB 7200rpm + Western Digital 120GB 8MB buffer
Windows98-SE + WindowsXP-SP1a + RedHat-Linux-9.0 + Suse-Linux-9.1

(Already, I am using Mozilla browser 1.7.3 on Linux)

Other system properties:

Professional sound: Creative SB16 ISA,
High bandwidth modem: Rockwell 33.6 ISA,
High quality big monitor: 14" color monitor

Have fun!
