I have the same problem on my home box which is Redhat 6.1 running on a
AMD K6-2 300 and 64 meg and on one system at work which is an Intel
pentium II 200 with 128 meg. My other work system, a Pentium III 450
with 128 meg also has the same problem but not as bad. All of my systems
ran a little better after upgrading to the most current gnome release
since Redhat's 6.1 rpms. It seems to get worse the more I use the Gnome
Terminal, I tend to have about 12 gnome terminals open at all the time
for several days until it gets to slow, the a simple restart of X fixes
the problem. I have always suspected that is was a memory problem in
gnome. Correct me if I am wrong.
