Slow Linux
 

Hello!

I'm using SuSE 9.1 Personal on a Compaq laptop Pentium4

I have both, windows and Linux on my HDD, and everything was fine until last week..
I noticed that Linux boots and works VERY SLOW!! and REALLY SLOWER when the Network cable is plugged in!!

I don't know what the problim is since I'm new to linux..

Please help..

vmstat and iostat are pretty useful for finding out io or memory useage stats. Also "top" can show what pids are using how much memory and cpu usage.

good luck.
