[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1713680, member: 46727"] Take it back to the genius bar for that second opinion. I don't understand how the tech came to the conclusion that everything looked fine unless he was referring to the fact that he couldn't see if anything was wrong. You don't have much free space on your SSD which will definitely make the machine work harder moving the swap file and memory around. If you have an external bootable hard drive you might try booting your MBA from that to see how it behaves. [/QUOTE]
