The GNOME development community has announced the official release of version 2.22 after six months of development. GNOME is an open-source desktop environment that supplies a complete user interface and an assortment of programs for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. GNOME 2.22 includes some important new architectural features and a handful of significant new programs. Among the most important enhancements in GNOME 2.22 are the GVFS virtual file system framework, which brings improved network transparency to GNOME desktop applications, and the PolicyKit framework, which provides improved support for secure privilege elevation.

Sounds like you're using some unaccelerated driver like fbdev, or something is really wrong with your xserver.
I run Gnome 2.20 on a PIII 500 with a crappy ATI rage 128 graphic card and I have none of the problems you describe.
