^^^^^ there's your video card but, i've left the rest in because i
don't necessarily think this is the issue here.

nothing stands out (don't know what ati's mobile driver is - a quick
google should show this)

i agree with your "very slow". that >1 load for a minute and >1.5 for
five minutes is pretty noticeable.

yeah, i figured you wouldn't have an x config. i was curious whether
something might have been configured and still in place after the
upgrade. per acct:
swilson-mbp-vdebian:~/code/node# ls -l /var/log/wtmp
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root utmp 71808 Mar 20 05:05 /var/log/wtmp
swilson-mbp-vdebian:~/code/node# apt-cache search acct
acct - The GNU Accounting utilities for process and login accounting

it might make tracking down the issue easier, but maybe not. either way...
i'll see if i have any time later to look some of this up (if no one
else has already done so :) )
