[gentoo-user] Very bad performance
Hi, whenever I cause a lot of IDE traffic(copying a large file from cd to disk, write a cd or copying a large file into another directory) my system becomes awfully slow. I cannot even play mp3's or move the mouse pointer without interruption. Also the drawing of a new window is very very slow. I am using a P4 with 2.4GHz and 1GB RAM(Kernel 2.4.20(vanilla)) and that's why I think it can't be the CPU. When I watch over the running processes using top I regognize that X is taking a lot of cpu usage. The kernel already supports the chipset I use. What kan I do to increase performance?(even on my old K6-400Mhz everything worked fine) Thank you in advance.

The major category (power management, or whatever category they call it) gives no indication that power management has been enabled, but if you drill down to the ACPI section, there it is.
