Hi all,
my 2 cents : forget "top" use the much more friendly "htop"
if it's not installed : "sudo aptitude install htop"

Try looking at performance monitoring tools to diagnose what is slowing the
machine down. You can start off by
1. Looking at "top". Are there rogue processes using up the CPU? There's
only one CPU so it doesn't take much to cause problems. You can press
'M' to sort processes by memory usage.
2. Looking at the load average
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uptime
09:08:45 up 11 days, 19:43, 2 users, load average: 0.21, 0.21, 0.08
3. Looking at the output of free
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2059656 2014164 45492 0 383708 1053664
-/+ buffers/cache: 576792 1482864
Swap: 1951888 548 1951340
paying particular attention to the amount of swap used (548 in this
case). If that's large, you're running out of memory and swapping.
4. Set up a proper monitoring tool like munin to get more detailed
information on your system performance.

In our actual solution (getopenlab) we using a KDE desktop, so I think
Gnome should have a slightly better performance! I hope I am note forced
to implement a other light weight desktop, like XFCE for example.
I don't think GNOME is known to be any lighter than KDE. Probably the
opposite in fact. If you're really running out of RAM (which seems
unlikely with 10 people), it's possible GNOME is a contributor.
It's possible you're uncovering some bug here which could be fixed.
