I don't know why it's so intensive.  I've got it on a 500 MHz Celeron,
with 384 megs of RAM, using an i810 on-board graphics chipset, running
FC4, and it's quite nippy.  I can grab the sky with the mouse, and whiz
things around.

Yet, on a 1.6 GHz P4, with 512 megs of RAM, and a SIS on-board graphics
chipset, running FC5, it's painfully slow.  It didn't help putting in a
NVideo graphics card, whether using the Xorg or the nvidia driver.  And
it's just as bad on FC6.

In both case, it's using the latest version of Stellarium in the
respective Fedora Core repos.
