I've done a similar thing on an MSI L1350D with similar specs to your Acer netbook.
It runs quite well I find, but it's also the most powerful I've owned so I guess my definition of 'terrible' might be different to someone who's used to more powerful hardware.
Only entries I have checked in Application Autostart are:
Network
Policykit Authentication Agent
Power Manager
PulseAudio Sound System
Thunar
XFCE Volume Daemon
XFSettingsd
User Folders Update
I think the XFCE desktop & LL itself are probably optimised about the best they can be for lighter powered systems.
There's a ton of articles about speeding up Linux on the web but how effective they really are I have no idea.
