Would this also explain why my mouse pointer gets stuck every 30 secs or so? 
My keyboard buffer is also sluggish, and intermittently loses characters. IOW 
I'm typing away (I'm not a fast typer, so I'm not filling up the buffer 
quickly) when the screen stops displaying the characters I've typed. After a 
few seconds, it catches up, but may have forgotten some of the characters, so 
I have to keep going back and correcting my work. This can be especially 
frustrating when it happens while I'm entering a masked password on a website, 
for example.

My system details are in my sig, below.
