Re: Gnome3 slowing down.

On the RAM comment.  Replacing the memory would be expensive.  Cheaper to get a new computer.   I did a full memory test recently and it came back clean.  Is there any specific test I can do?

Currently I'm in the issue.  I've closed RDP and Thunderbird.

Here's the free results:

free -m

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

Mem:          5982       5429        552          0        181       2183

-/+ buffers/cache:       3063       2918

Swap:        10239         18      10221

Top memory users are Gnome-Shell and Chrome, and chrome I only opened to type this message so it wasn't open when the mess started.

Run free -m and see if that's a memory issue? If it is, top will tell
you what programs are using memory. That's probably coming from memory,
closing programs wouldn't help if it wasn't.

Hard to tell until you find the program responsible for that. Fedora is
better because that's OK even if that's not a bug in GNOME, but if you
know comes from GNOME, then GNOME is better... ;-)
