Check to see if you have set up a permanent swapfile.  I have two system one
with a permanent swapfile and one without(can not set up a permanent and must
use the temporary since I am using a disk manager to partition a large drive 
in 3.3).

The machine with a permanent swapfile (a 16MHZ 386SX) comes up much faster 
than the one with the temp. swapfile (a 16MHz 386DX) although normal logic
would say the DX is faster than the SX, but the difference is in the 
type of swapfile being used.
