Are you talking about logging in or just in general? The startup is pretty slow on the new "Deb" Athena.

It's secretly a plot to make clusters annoyingly slow, so people stop using them, and then justify cutting them by the fact that no one's using them.

I discovered that it's actually just the back three computers in the building 2 basement cluster. What the fuck?

MIT hates East Campus-type basement dwellers who use those clusters.

Also, everything was super slow: logging in, loading firefox, going to a different webpage on firefox... very annoying.

I need to print and I can't set up printing on this computer without the Windows disks.
