gimp 2.8 prohibitively slow

[Aaron Paden <aaronbpaden@xxxxxxxxx>]

So I mostly use MyPaint, but I'd like to be able to do some things in 
gimp, too. But gimp is way too slow on this computer. Especially trying 
to open large images like MyPaint encourages, I'll have to run to 
another tty to try and kill the process so I can continue to use my 
computer. I've got an old Pentium 4 with only about half a gig of RAM. A 
bit behind the times, but especially on Linux it's generally fast enough 
to get the job done.

Is there anything I can do to help improve performance? I don't have 
much experience. I doubt I could write anything any faster. But maybe I 
can do something to help identify bottlenecks? Anything I can do to 
help, I'm game.
