Yeah, and I even searched the list before I asked the Q.

Anyway, that program is exactly what I had in mind, but
it doesn't look like I'm running very many services, so I doubt
there is much I can turn off.

Here's what's on according to ntsysv:

anacron
atd
crond
gpm
identd
network
random
syslog
xfs
xinetd

Is there anything here that I can turn off that will help signficantly
with performance?

Thanks,

Drew
