Log file not growing

I have a Db that is 3.8Gb and a log file that is 1mb the
log file does not grow. The db is setup with simple
recovery and the log file is configured to autogrow by
10%. Users are complaining that the DB is slow. My
hardware on this server is: 2 pentium xeon's with 4Gb of
ram 2 raid controllers 1 running raid 1 for the OS and
the other Raid 5 for the DB.In simple recovery mode the log is automatically truncated every time a
checkpoint occurs ( default every minute)... So the log will never get
larger than the longest running transaction..
