mythtv-suite is a virtual package with no actual contents, just dependencies 
on all the myth packages on ATrpms. So you can safely:

# rpm -e mythtv-suite
# rpm -e mythphone mythgame mythgallery etc

Fedora Core 3 is plenty fast. Changing a distribution entirely does not a 
faster machine make. Disable all services you don't need, switch to a very 
lightweight window manager, etc., and the performance difference between FC3 
and any other distro is typically marginal at best.
