Start up from your OS install disk and run a Disk Repair on the Startup disk, not a Repair Permissions, a Repair disk that is only available when starting from another disk.
In our case the disk repair found only a couple of errors but the difference in performance is amazing, we have a new Macbook on our hands as I couldn’t believe the difference such a simple function provided.
