Well... you could always move to WebSphere Developer Studio (WSAD) for a while. After that Dreamweaver will seem downright peppy. I use WSAD on both a 1,200 MHz, 2Gig of Ram laptop and on my personal Dual-Opteron 252, 3 Gig of RAM machine - Dreamweaver is significantly faster on both machines. Of course neither are anywhere near Homesite+ which runs just fine on my old 800 MHz, 256 Meg of RAM machine. ;^) Of course I still have them all installed. Bottom line is that more features means slower processing - use the least tool you can for the job at hand.
