RE: CPU usage constantly 100%

Not sure how this works but I threw in a 2gb RAM stick and the problem seems to be gone. The computer is now using massively more RAM than before though (before it was like 245 out of 498mb and now it stays at 728 out of 2007mb) but the CPU usage dropped to 30-50% from 70-100%... So I guess (hope) this is solved.

I was thinking that maybe Ubuntu was trying to use CPU power to compensate for lack of RAM, as in organizing the cache files et cetera to be as efficient as possible at all times, and it simply couldn't do that well enough without occasionally freezing...? Just a hunch.
