[QUOTE="artdog, post: 494461, member: 34771"] My system seems to be getting slower and slower starting up. The initial start up process seems the same with the OS splash screen showing and the progress bar. What is happening is after the menu appears, the system seems to be thrashing around on the hard drive for 20 or 30 secs before the desktop appears. I have run the daily, weekly and monthly maintenance scripts but it has had no effect. I even tried cache cleaning but also no effect. I have checked the startup items folder and it is empty. I have checked the login items for my account and there is only Little Snitch Daemon Font Agent Activator Adobe Resource Synchronizer Synergy icalalarmsheduler None of these are new or even remotely recent except perhaps for the adobe resource synchronizer. I recently installed the adobe production premium. I had only the design premium installed before. Anyone have any ideas how I might fix this? [/QUOTE]
