Look in the frontend configuration. Somewhere in there there is a
setting for "menu drawing method." Change it to one of the lower cpu
useage ones. Trying to do something like transparencies on a slow
system with no video hardware is not an easy thing.
It's not a general myth problem, my menus are quite responsive.
