Install FreeBSD on old Pentium2 laptop

Hi BSD-Friends! :)
I have a laptop with Pentium2 233Mhz + 128Mb RAM and 120Gb HDD (default 4Gb HDD I'm replace for that)
And I'm install to that "machine" FreeBSD 10 (plug HDD to my Desktop and recompile world and kernel and setup needed ports)
My desktop is: Xorg + Slim + FluxBox + Tint2 + Opera, after graphical boot it is a 40% RAM free.
All works fine, but Xorg always eats 25-30% cpu when I not work with any application and not touch keyboard and touchpad. And feeling that applications start so slow.

I understand that that is a very slow laptop, but on that notebook Windows 98 works much better, and I try Linux distro Puppy linux and Damn Small Linux, and that systems works very good.
Is anybody knows, can i solve that issue and maybe optimize OS for that machine better?

Remove the AllowEmptyInput option from xorg.conf.
Remove eisa, add cpu I586 to kernel config.
Remove the CFLAGS and COPTFLAGS settings from make.conf.

Add RAM, if possible.

I do that, but Xorg cpu consumption not decrease.

But everywhere tells that in kernel config better to set cpu which you have for better performance. And Pentium-II is i686-cpu?

It is like previous term, everywhere writes that native-cpu optimizations in make.conf are good.

Existed 128Mb is upgraded from 64Mb :)

Thank You wblock@ for help and answers, I test Your recommendations!

That's not to save CPU, but to react correctly to mouse moves: AllowEmptyInput, FreeBSD, and Xorg Input

But everywhere tells that in kernel config better to set cpu which you have for better performance. And Pentium-II is i686-cpu?

Not hereabouts. Generally it's the first question we ask when someone has problems. A frequent source of problems and I've yet to see anyone showing an improvement in operation. Setting CPUTYPE is okay, though.

Including cpu I586 can give a small speed increase because of optimizations in the kernel. Don't replace I686, just add I586. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2011-June/230491.html
 
I will try your recommendations! Thank you! Also, I add
Code:
MALLOC_PRODUCTION=yes
to make.conf.
Good day!
