yes KDE is really slow, quite like this on P200. the simplest solution is
not to use it at all (on faster machines too).

Unless all you need is fancy graphics KDE doesn't have anything really
useful. Use fvwm2 or icewm as window manager it's fast.

you may like to run few of KDE apps, but without KDE as a whole
