Simply try to disable swap (swapoff -a or comment out swap partitions in /etc/fstab and reboot). I did this on a 384 MiB SMP box as I had bad interactive performance with some desktop apps and heavy background disk I/O (video grabing) around 2.4.10-2.4.13 (I did not reactivate swap since) and it solved my interactive perf woes.
