This sounds obvious but, how much Ram do you have?
If it's 2 GB or less, I strongly suggest to upgrade to 3 or - better - 4 GB.

2 GB are fairly cheap nowadays, and it's often the most "bang for your buck"
upgrade available.

Which OSX version are you using?
I think you know that, usually, the newer the OS, the slower it is.
If I were you, I wouldn't go past 10.9 on your iMac.

I have an Early 2009 iMac, and I'm still mainly using OSX 10.6 because it's
the more stable and faster on this machine.
On a secondary partition I have OSX 10.9, for instances where I need to use
some newer app.
