G3 runs SLOW after waking up

Hello all, I hope you can help me. I recently installed Mac OS 9.2.1 on my blue/white G3 tower. It is a 400mhz with 512 megs of RAM. All was going well until my computer went to sleep. Now when it wakes up the machine runs VERY slowly. It is acting as though something is consuming a large amount of memory. Quitting apps does not help, but performance returns to normal after restarting the machine. I've gone through the machine and removed unused extensions and control panels, virtual memory is off (usually keep it that way anyhow), and I've increased the disk cache to120,000K. All of these changes have had no effect. I'm out of ideas, any suggestions?
