I filed the duplicate bug on this issue, so I already listed my many
many problems in that one. I just want to add something regarding the
most frustrating of the performance issues for me: The Ubuntu Software
Center taking ages to load.

I wiped out my UNE 10.10 from my ASUS 1005PE and for testing purposes I 
installed the desktop edition on it. Although it was generally way faster (!) 
than UNE, the Software Center still took a lot of time to load. 
I thought this was okay for the desktop edition installed on a netbook, but the 
fact that I had the exact same loading time on UNE made me ask whether they 
really optimized the Netbook Edition for actual NETBOOK use.

Software Center takes the same (very long) time to load on my ASUS with UNE as 
with the desktop edition!
So... is the netbook edition really optimized for atom processors or netbook 
use in general? UNE 10.10 makes me think: not.

But turns out, this is a larger problem than that: I installed Ubuntu
10.10 desktop edition on my DELL Latitude D620 laptop and although the
Software Center loading time is of course better, it still takes too
long on that machine too! If I'm trying to install a deb with SC, it
takes ages to load the SC on my laptop too. With Gdebi, installation was
simple and quick, now it's a drag. I have to lay back in my seat and
stare at the ceiling waiting for SC to load when I tried to install a
deb file!

I'm reverting back to 10.04.1 on my netbook and laptop too...
