console works very slowly, though the machine (ASUS motherboard) has
2 Gigs of RAM and a good GeForce video board. For comparison, my old
IBM machine ( PentiumII , 128Mb RAM , 16Mb video memory ) runs Free
BSD much more faster. Could you help us fix the trouble?

Can you quantify the slowness? This isn't much of an explanation for
