Hello,
EDIT OOPS! I meant 2009, not 2008
I run both 10.8 and Win 7 on my 2009 15" MBP. I am experiencing some really bad performance issues as well as a new audio issue that started just yesterday. I will try and explain them as best as i can.
Performance:
-Takes ages to boot both OSX and Win 7
-Takes ages to log in after entering my password in OSX, it sometimes skips characters of my password
-When trying to launch a program i am greeted with a pinwheel in both OSX and Win 7
-Once things are "going" it seems to run fine
Audio:
-After installing win 7 and rebooted, the start up chime made a harsh atari like "ccchhhssshhowwwwwww" followed by the last half second of the standard chime. This repeated 5 or 6 times.
-The above happens every time i reboot from Win 7, only when rebooting and not shutting down and powering back on
-OSX has no audio at all. when using the volume keys theres a slash out symbol under the volume bar
-Audio settings are greyed out in the settings screen, but i do have the option to select "built in speakers"
-Win 7 has no audio issues at all
What i have tried:
-Used OnyX to clear every type of cash i could
-PRAM reset
-Smart Utility; shows a good drive
-Apple System Diagnostics; Shows all systems GO
-Another Hard Drive
-Both OSX and 7 are fresh installs
Audio recorded from my speaker:

Thanks ahead of time for checking this out.
