Well... DUH! You're comparing apples to oranges, and I suspect you know it,
Kurth. :-)
The default GNOME system uses Enlightenment, which is very resource
intensive (by design), and is somewhat unstable (not by design). In your
case, I would recommend invoking the "GNOME Control Center", going to Desktop
-> Window Manager, and choosing "Window Maker" from the list.
