I've found, on slow machines, that it's worthwhile compiling a kernel, but 
only really because of the stuff you can leave out; default distribution 
kernels have a lot fo stuff compiled in. However, it was a while ago I 
discovered this, and most of the kernels are probably modular now, which might 
alleviate the problem.
