For the user reporting this trouble:

1.  Do not ignore previous email on hdparm.  If you do not have your
hdparm settings right it will slow the system down.

2.  The above mentioned fix does help on text processing slowdowns.

Finally I have a question myself.  Would it suffice to set the

export LC_ALL=C
export LANG=c

in the /etc/profile?

Or would does this need to be set in all shell scripts actively used on
the box.  It seems like an annoying pain in the ass to edit all Nautilus
scripts for this bit.  

No, I am not forgetting about editing the /etc/sysconfig/il8n and
removing the .UTF-8 from the LANG setting as suggested in the link
above.
