iBook Slow on 10.2.2 (Continued)

[Larry Blodgett]

I have installed 10.2.2 from scratch on a seperate partition on my 
iBook 12" 500MHz 320 MegRam.  The install and the intenet update 
tooks hours and hours to perform.  The machine is crawling and top 
says the cpu is like 85-95 % busy.

The hardware CD check continues to show everything passed.

When I boot into 9.2.2 everything is fine, nice and fast.

I have reset pram, I erased the partition before I reinstalled.  The 
thing runs so slow in 10.2.2 it is hard to do any testing or 
anything.  I guess I will pull the memory and see if the thing will 
even boot.

This has me totally stumped, how could 9.2.2 run like a charm and 
10.2.2 be so slow?

If you have any ideas let me know.
