Optimum performance
 
Hi,

My PC seems to a little slow lately.

Is there anything I could you to ensure it runs at best performance.

I,m running Ubuntu 10.0

you may have to type

/usr/sbin/free
or it might be
/sbin/free

Something like that.

it's Ubuntu 10.10...

I have it installed in various partitions and it does slow-up
especially when browsing with firefox...
also have seen many postings, etc about it being slow

What exactly is slow ? An example maybe ?

To use free you need to install the procps package
