There is something wrong with your java install. My results:

~ :: time java -version
java version "1.6.0_22"

Have you tried reinstalling Java or reinstalling the combo update? Is Java the only slow app?

I was wondering what are the exact step for reinstalling java...do u need the OS install cd ? and everything else seem to run smooth. Is there another app i can check in terminal so i can get the time.

also all updates are installed...except for safari and itunes

You can try any other command that won't be machine specific (timing to see how long it takes find to find something won't work as a comparison for example given that I/we have different HD sizes and a different number of files). You're more than welcome to test something out and I'll compare it to my results (I have a fairly similarly spec'd machine).

Your dmesg time is oddly long. Why it is taking 11 secs is beyond me. This is what I got:

real	0m0.019s
user	0m0.005s
sys	0m0.011s

Even the ifconfig results, which aren't terrible, are considerably slow. Here's mine:

real	0m0.012s
user	0m0.001s
sys	0m0.003s

Right now, I can't honestly say why it's taking so long. I'm going to have to get back to you on this one.
