Several Problems

I'm experiencing several problems with my Vegas 6.0d project. The footage was shot on a JVC HDV camera and captured as Intermediates. Here are my problems:
1. What does it mean when an event is solid red in the timeline?
2. All events are video + audio and should be the same length, however some clips seem to have longer audio than video and it appears the video is time compressed. Can I fix this?
3. I'm using a 3Ghz HT, 1 Gig of ram, with 272 GBs of free Storage. Should Vegas be more responsive? I have to be careful loading clips, scrubing the timeline, and editing not to freeze up the system temporarily.
