First, look at gnome-system-monitor for realizing what's going on. But I think You must install Lubuntu(LXDE based Ubuntu). You can get much higher performance with it on 2GB RAM with a dual core processor.

The difference is just the look. You can run everything that works under default Ubuntu

  • Run it via typing gnome-system-monitor and switch to Process tab. And See which process is exploitting CPU (click %CPU collumn). Otherwise, you can see it via top command. Mar 11, 2016 at 12:46
  • And I've used Lubuntu when I was using old laptop like yours, 2GB Ram, Dual Core. I definetly recommend Lubuntu. I just warn you but of course it's your decision. Mar 11, 2016 at 12:51
