Gemini and Kernel versions.

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life!

I recently installed Gemini, and it's working great, however, after an update/upgrade kernel 5.9.15 got upgraded to 5.10.13 and noticed the system got slowed down a bit, I tried a few things to no avail, so I just decided to use 5.9 and that fixed it. Has anybody else seen this? 
This is the machine specs

CPU: 2 × AMD E-300 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics
RAM: 2 GiB 
GPU: AMD PALM

I know it's a low spec machine but Centaurus with KDE runs great; RAM usage is around 400mb in idle. With Gemini is around 500mb, using kernel 5.9, while with 5.10 it used around 700-800mb.

Re: Gemini and Kernel versions.

Ive had no issues the 5.10 kernel with both my older or newer hardware and I run it mainly on laptops.

Actually, 5.10 has been working fine for the last couple of weeks now. Not sure what happened, maybe it wasn't that after all but rather some other thing/setting.
