Public bug reported: problems with time taken to execute tasks, perhaps as a result of cumulative updates over several lts editions.i am a complete novice, sorry I cannot provide more specific information.With more recent updates,a lot of time seemed to be spent loading? generic files one after another,for no apparent reason,{just watching update details in progress window}what I think is needed is a clean install, but I do not know how to do that and maintain data etc.The computer is a small netbook,Medion E1210.,probably needs a lighter version.
