Issues with Ubuntu 12.04 LTR

Hi all
I have a Lenovo thinkpad with an Intel Core 2 Duo T5870 2.00 Ghz with a GM
45 Chipset with 8 Gig of DDR III Ram

Since I installed 12.04 LTR my lappy has slowed down and there appears to
be memory issues, I am not able to open as many tabs as I was in the
previous release 11.04

Facebook jams up and I am unable to use Google DOCS, could someone please
suggest a way forward, and some diagnostic tests that I could run to pin
point the issue.

I have been considering getting an SSD drive and a new main board as one of
the USB ports is non functional.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I have a mountain of
research and assessments to do.

 Yours in Wellness
