On my Gentoo at home, yes. The mouse cursor skips, scrolling gets
skippy/laggy too. I have a dual core e6...@3.33ghz with 4GB DDR2 RAM.
Just like me, but I have it set to default clock: 2.4GHz. Beyond that,
it gets somewhat funny :-/
I bought a CPU cooler the size of skyscraper though; it barely fits in
the tower ;P At stock 2.4GHz, it's a bit more laggy with heavy load.
Are you sure your HDs run with DMA enabled? SATA shouldn't have this
problem, but as technology gets cheaper, you never know :(
It's SATA.
It appears that the kernel gets slower and slower and more "laggy" on
desktops with every release. Servers seem to get happier though. I
hope they don't totally abandon the desktop at some point :P
