Not normal! I use Rev on equivalent machines as you and it's very fast. 
The property inspector, script editor, app browser all open up in <= 1 
second. Compiled apps are quick as well.

One possible gotcha to watch out for is that opening up or searching in 
the Documentation window in the Rev IDE uses significant amount of RAM.

Other than that I have no ideas right now- sorry,
