Why is Fedora-19-alpha so extremely slow?

Wed Apr 24 13:58:07 UTC 2013

Greetings,

Because F17 and F18 installers have bugs when installing with encryption enabled for "/" on my notebook (and the F18 respin does not start installation at all) I decided to give F19-alpha a try.

However, the system runs very slow (compared to F17 on the same notebook) - XOrg performs poorly and larger applications (firefox) take a lot more time for startup than on F17. 

I guess this is because of debugging options (run-time checks etc) enabled. Is there any way to avoid this additional debugging overhead somehow, like some kernel parameters or ....

Thx, Regina
