Hi. i recently installed LL on a toshiba satellite laptop ( about 5-6 yrs old) . About 15-20% of the time it is slow after bootup. This is straight afterwards & before i actually start trying to do anything. The cursor movement is jittery (i use a usb mouse) & there is noticeable hesitation on opening any aps. The last time it did this (just now) i opened task manager to see what was running. All the processes showed 0% cpu usage (except task mang.) but the graph &  % caption at the top showed overall cpu usage at around 50%. i can tell by the fan usage that work was being done.  It doesn't go away if i leave it. So far if i restart it sorts itself out & overall cpu% drops to 10-30%. it used to do this when it ran Win 10 but i thought it was all the background aps that caused it then, hard to tell.  I know it the symptoms are rather vague but has anyone any idea were i might start in tracking this down?
