In Addition, if your hard drive is small, and/or nearly full, Windows will be shuffling files using the swap file. This takes a lot of time with a full or small hard drive.

I run WL on a 233 mhz Sony Vaio laptop with 129 meg of memory. I never have a speed problem with any functions, such as file saving, sending CW, DXTelnet, etc. My hunch is that your config with only 32 megs of memory is your problem. I'd suggest upping your memory to its max, and running WL with a minimum of other programs running simultaneously.
