I do not know, what you do, but on my VIA EPIA LN10000EAG I have only
1 GByte of memory and a 4 GByte "SanDisk Extereme IV" an where I can not
have any SWAP partitions.
From a cold start up to "wdm" login screen (I use fvwm) it need only
arround 22 seconds... OpenOffice start now faster then on my old "AMD
Sempron 2200+" with 2 GByte of memory...

How many SWAP do you use?
Do you have considered to compile your kernel with 4 GByte support and
PAE (some mchines need it even if they have only 1 Gbyte of memory) to
get the rest of your 1 GByte memory?
