SORRY MAKE THAT THE 2010 AIR not the 2011

Wow. Poor little thing really has a hard time pushing that large screen.

I have a handful of windows open with several google chrome browsers, email and a few spreadsheets on google docs. This is with lion.

Everything works ok, however it is very jittery and has a hard time going between spaces and apps. I run it in clamshell....if I try to have it run both screens it is really bad.

Is this just the way it is?

Is running the large display a processor thing or GPU or a combo of both?

Any guess on if the new 11 inch air with 4gigs and the base processor would do any better?
