Sorry you've had problems with it, but I run Gnome exclusively.  I prefer
the separation of window manager and GUI, feels more flexible.  As for
performance, I've seen little to no problems.  Here are the systems I'm
running it on.

PII 400 w/ 64 Megs - Laptop
PIII 600 w/ 256 Megs - Work Desktop
PIII 500 x 2 w/ 128 Megs - Home Server
AMD K6-2 300 w/ 128 Megs - Home Workstation
AMD Athlon 650 w/ 128 Megs - Home Main System
AMD K6 200 (@166) w/ 128 Megs - Home Crash System

I have an older processor. Gnome doesn't work well with it or the old one
I had before as well.

I'd sy (IMO) gnome doesn't work well. Period.
