If steam makes your computer run at 486 speed, get a new computer. I've been monitoring Steam's resource usage for several days here (I'm a suspicious type person.) It uses up negligible amounts of CPU and RAM when in the background, and even in the foreground, doesn't have any impact on gameplay. I just leave it running all the time. I don't even notice. So yeah. Somethings broken with your PC if steam lags it. After running it for about a week it had used up a total of about 20 CPU -seconds-.
