I think the slowness is because the added things in the X-servers, but
that is just an educated guess. To see what stuff is loaded on boot, you
run

setup

as root, and in the "system services" you can select what will be loaded
and omitted. make sure you don't kick out important stuff!! If you're not
sure, ask here, or leave it alone!
