I have recently installed Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 on one of my VMs
and surprisingly this machine is giving very slow response.
I have to wait for around 4-5 seconds after entering any command.
Even if I try to login through putty it takes 1-2 min in the procedure of simply logging in.
The machine hangs frequently as many times I have to restart the machine to make it work properly.
It also takes long time to come up as compared to other linux machines.
Can here someone guide me, what am I suppose to check or do to speed up my system?
here are outputs of some commands
