When would I want to use the big ring in front, small in back?

There are 2 chainrings in the front, 8 speed cassette in the back. On this bike, using the big ring in front and small ring in back feels sluggish, like I'm wasting energy and not getting much in return. With my other bikes, that combination gives me some good speed. When will I want to use the big ring in front, small ring in back?
