A 700 MZh Pc is fast enough to run linux!!
It is a decent speed.
You now have 192MB ram and thus the swap partition should now be set to around 384MB rather than just 200MB. It should work faster. Have hope, the horse is not dead as yet- fit enough for a few more races:-)

friends got this old celeron some 700 odd mhz type pc. with 64mb ram. he
installed redhat8 on it, and it runs really slow, especially when it
comes to openoffice.

he decides to upgrade ram to a nice 64 + 128 MB.

machine still slow. i remembered something about swap disk being
optimised for ram. checked his swap. was earlier set to 200mb. do you
think i need to change his swap to some other size to make the machine
go a little faster. or is it a dead horse he just can't flog?
