[Bug 514883] Re: dialog-based applications seem sluggish

[Dustin Kirkland]

I think this is due to the installer using the kernel framebuffer, which
adds overhead and makes VMs seem slower.

Try booting a server ISO, and at the cd boot menu, hit F6, then ESC, and
add "fb=false" to the end of the kernel boot line.

This makes the menus far snappier for me.
