Hmmm.. I just installed F11 today on my laptop. I did a custom install (i.e. I selected every package from the customization menus). Yeah... a big and time consuming installation. I am not having the problems you are reporting at all. In fact, I get to the login prompt in exactly 35 seconds from boot start (i.e. from the time when I select which OS to boot from the grub menu). My cpu is an old uniproc amd64, though my kernel is i386. My ram is 2GB. I am not booting the default kernel, which has the PAE (Physical Address Extension). I am booting the non-PAE kernel. I wonder if that has an impact on performance. Have you tried to install and boot from the non-PAE kernel?
