Google Chrome, Notepad, Notepad++, and 2 instances of Roblox are killing mine.

As in, it's not registering keys when I type. :L

Windows, doesn't take much, probably the same as what you have.
Linux, never have lag, even with 104 tabs, and at least 3 other programs open.
But, Roblox doesn't like Linux :[

If you have a bad processor, and under 1GB of RAM, you'll always lag.

My computer is probably an absolute piece of trash. Luckily, I think I'll be getting a new one soon. :P

Some of my friends think that because I program so much, I'm always pushing my computer to its limits. But I think programming is much, much less hard on your computer than being an average computer-illiterate; they'll download viruses, junkware, never clean stuff up, not watching background programs, etc.

Operating System: Windows 7 Home PErmium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7600)
System Model: HP TouchSmart tm2 Notebook PC
Processor: Genuine Intel(R) CPU U7300 @ 1.30GHz (2 CPUs), ~1.3GHz
Memory: 4096MB RAM

I have Ubuntu installed, I never use the touch screen and generally find it a nuisance, I don't know what the gibberish in Processor means, and the RAM is kinda explaining why it is slow. I MEAN REALLY. Not even 1GB..?

"4096MB are equal to 4.003GB"

No it's not :v 1GB is 1024MB, so it's exactly 4GB.

Anyways, the only thing to have ever lagged my computer is Bitcoin mining, and that's only desktop graphics lag, nothing else lags. And my specs are crap compared to some higher end computers :v 4GB DDR2 RAM, AMD Athlon X2 2.7GHz, Windows 7 64-bit, ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB GDDR3.

I had a ton of chrome tabs, a huge amount of 16 Mb roblox places up, TeamViewer, and a few other things and my computer only just started slowing down.

My computer only lags when I'm playing a game that my '06 graphics card can't handle very well -- and my computer is from '05.

Intel Core i5 and 6GB of RAM.
I haven't hit the limits yet. Portal 2 and a ton of other Valve games I have runs beautifully at highest video settings without my computer fan turning into the sound of a roflcopter.

1 GB is
1,073,741,824 bytes
1,048,576 kilobytes
1,024 megabytes
Just to clear that up.

My computer lags when rendering large amounts of bricks on Mi necraft and running ROBLOX + Firefox.

Also, I just watched the seconds on my computer go from 36, to 35, then back to 36...
