Looking for a distro that does web browsing really well with the following specs (or a way to make Ubuntu behave).
I have a Celeron ~1.6GHz machine, 512MiB RAM, 80GB HDD. Ubuntu 8.04 and now 8.10 both grind almost to a halt when Firefox is running. (I think 8.10 is actually worse). There is plenty of free memory - 200+ Happens with one window open or with many. Other browsers are no better - tried Opera, same issues. CPU just hits 100% and just grinds away.
