@SwampRabbit Thank you, I had already downsized to 3 CPU cores, 2GBs RAM, 64MBs for the GPU before reading your comment. It clearly makes a difference.
I will certainly go for an SSD, too.

@linuxforever I'd put your VMs on the SSD if you decide to go that route, the MX installation could stay on the HDD, even better would be to replace both HDD with SSDs... but I get that that increases costs obviously.
