(sorry for no quotes)

I have been experiencing these same "symptoms" as Ramon is describing, 
except for the swapping, which i rarely get any, but system responsiveness is 
extreamly poor and "laggy" when starting X with KDE-2.1.1, mouse stops or 
rather sticks during the startup for KDE, and also during startups to programs in KDE. 

Also on the console, issueing commands ( even multiple times) there is what i 
would call a "1 sec pause" eg: ls <enter>, pause, then the listing. This applies, 
so far, to anything i have been doing in the console ( with and with-out 
XFree86-4 started)

I also have been installing the system multiple times, along with XFree86-4 and 
KDE, not knowing what to make of the situation until now that I have found not 
too be the only experiencing such things. It is definately a " downgraded step in 
performance " compared to when i was running 4-STABLE and KDE-2.1.

Truthfully, I'm not sure if the problem lies with FreeBSD, XFree86-4 or KDE-2.1.1, 
but am inclined to begin with KDE-2.1.1, seeing as kdeinit has been "core-ing" 
every once in awhile, hence my doing multiple install's of it due to getting totally 
frustrated in cleaning out .core file's.

Today i finished my final "total" install ( buildworld, XFRee86-4, KDE-2.1.1, with a 
cleaned out /usr/X11R6 and /usr/local, and obj ) and am inclined to go back too 
4-STABLE, XFree86-4 and KDE-2.1, at a time when things were working quite nicely 
before upgrading to 4.3 etc.

I would like to try and figure things out as they are now, but would need more 
experienced hands in suggesting way's to analize the system as it stands now. 
Below is a dmesg, top and my  config ( today i added SHMMAXPGS after beginning 
a search in the archive's for similar problems, but have noticed no change with this 
option)
 
Thanks

David
