The N900 is only slow if you compare it to hardware that's 4/5 years newer, or if you don't have the system set up properly.

One of my N900s is running on CSSU-Thumb, overclocked with minimum freq 500 and max freq 805, and it is just fine. Also, try to reboot often or use something like ereswap or flopswap to avoid performance issues due to swap file fragmentation.
