The obvious stuff to do is repair disk permissions and run some clean-up apps. In my experience, though, I've found the best thing to do is reinstall OS X. It's really not as drastic as some make it out to be.
Run Activity Monitor and watch what processes are using the most resources. This can be enlightening. |
Thanks for the reply. The most intense apps are Safari with 290MB of RSIZE. The other apps I mentioned are using less than 70MB of RSIZE. I'll try repairing disk permissions and do some spring cleaning and see if it helps.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, while the other apps I mentioned don't use much RSIZE, they all each over 800MB of VSIZE each.
