I used to reinstall my OpenSuSE system, to get GUI working I had to choose
KDE(4) or Gnome, and since I really wanted to ultimately install Trinity, I
chose Gnome. Once Trinity was working my system was amazingly slow, and
after a lot of hairpulling I discovered that Gnome's file indexing subsystem
was starting, even though I wasn't using Gnome; I had to delete those Gnome
components. Maybe something similar is happening on your machine?
Modern Gnome is to classic Gnome as KDE 4 was to classic KDE, only more
so. It puts its tentacles into everything, and like a vampire squid,
sucks the life out of your desktop.

Speaking of expensive laptops, I'm thinking of starting a GoFundMe to by
me a Luvaglio.
