With the 2GB, I bet in those particular zones with higher asset counts, you are paging. My EQ currently is showing over half a gig of memory. So in your situation, it is extremely likely you are running out of memory and having to use the page file. You can run EQ in those zones you mentioned, and bring up your task manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Start Task Manager) and click the performance tab.
Windows 7 can be alright with 2gb, but 4gb should be a minimal when running about anything, including a browser. I have a bunch of tabs open right now and my browser alone is using .3 gigs of memory, most of the time its much more then that, upwards to 600 megs.
You should certainly find compatible memory for your system and add at least 2 GB of memory. Check out your system documentation to find out the maximum and what type you need. There is a far out option of something like readyboost with a flash drive or something in the interim, but you will need to get that ram upgrade.
