Hmm... I'm not sure. I don't know how fast a "Duron 800" is, but any system that runs 2.17 should run Pizzapup just as well. Does the graph in the bottom right show a large amount of CPU use? If so, run top to see what's hogging it.
Worst case scenario, most if not all eye candy elements are pretty easy to add to other Puppies. WhoDo produces a package called "EZ-pup" that does a lot towards that end (IceWM, themes, icons, wallpapers, etc). I don't know if it's compatible with 2.17; probably is. I don't remember if that includes the cursors and GTK themes, but both are available as package somewhere (MU posted them).

Good luck. If you need any specific items you can't find, I still have my Pizzapup build-tree, so I could make a package out of them.
