OSX 10.6.6
Macbook Air
I recently used the "delete free space" feature in disk utility to overwrite all my free space to protect deleted files (i don't know why). But sinse doing so my macbook takes considerably longer to boot up. Before deleting the free space it would boot in around 15 seconds, now it takes over a minute and on the blue loading screen i get the wait wheel, which never appeared before.
Does anyone know why this may be and, more importantly, how to fix it?
