Disk wildness...

Ever since I upgraded to 3.0 from 2.1, I noticed a couple of things that
seem to have worsened:
	1. applications seem to take a lot longer to launch
	2. my external harddisk seems to spin wildly a lot, often even
	   when I'm not running anything serious or typing at all.
I have a NeXTStation with 20MB RAM, 660 MB external disk and 105 MB
internal; my file systems are on the external, and the swap on  the
internal.  With 20MB, I would expect none of the above 2 problems
to show up..

Any help will be appreciated...
(Also, I vaguely remember seeing similar questions quite a while
back, but at that time I didn't save the messages... could someone
send me any discussion they saved?)

Thanks.
