My Dell E6510 laptop with core i5 processor was running super slow and I tried everything to get it running fast.
It is crazy to see what made it work finally!
1) Firstly select the high performance power plan
2) Change Plan Settings >> Change Advanced Plan Settings
3) Processor Power Management >> Minimum Power State
4) Set both values to 99%
Voila!
Problem solved. This laptop was super slow even with 8GB RAM and a hybrid 7200RPM HDD. So, none of those are the solutions.
[Update: 7-AUG-2011]: As I originally suspected, we can squeeze even more performance from this laptop. I installed windows 2008 server r2 sp1 on the laptop, and it runs even more faster now. Every bit of speed increase helps I guess.
