You are right Archana, even I faced the same problem with open 
office. But at the same time look at the features that open office 
provides, May be it was a flaw ( memory hogging) in open office 
rather than the Linux kernel. But at the same time I hardly use open 
office. Most of my work needs vi and emacs. But I think open office 
problem is solved now. coz now open office opens in a matter of few 
seconds in RHEL .

Have never faced the same problem. and considering the high end 
configuration that you use it looks strange.

I prefer KDE and always use that as it has better session management 
schemes than GNOME. GNOME, ahhh I too dont like ( you are right its 
a bit too like well..ahem). never used fluxbox though. How is it?

Well, its the one which is supported  by REDHAT and well if the 
company is paying for that then why to go for FC ;-)
