Less than that, for sure. On my machines it is usually done in a few hours. There was something else going on. Fedora often installs with services started that are not appropriate for your system, because they are trying to make things available to people who do need those services. You should look in System->Administration->Services and turn off anything you don't need. If you do decide to test F11 again, be sure and use top and iotop (in a terminal) to see what is using all the power of your machine. A couple of user processes that eat a lot of power are beagle and strigi, particularly if they are set to monitor lots of directories and web pages. When web surfing, the slowdown is noticeable. And ill formed javascript can really such up the cpu time; use noscript firefox plugin to turn off javascript unless you want it. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
