[mythtv-users] menu speed

I just started evaluating MythTV on my old P2-450MHz system, which
currently has no video hardware. Eventually, I hope to use my
P3-800MHz with a PVR-500 card. Anyhow, I noticed right away that
the menus are awfully slow. It takes a couple of seconds to move
between different menus or even moving through the program guide.
Can this be improved? I'm using Debian/sid with the Debian MythTV
packages, and testing with the local keyboard. My original TiVo
runs on a far less powerful system and has similar, if not better,
performance.
I would really like to see very snappy and responsive menus. One of
my biggest complaints about digital cable/satelite and TiVo is that
the moving through the menus is too slow. I hate having to wait
for the system to respond after I've pressed a key.
