Sort of right and I’m glad to see someone else with some accurate
understandings of how the Mac works on this level.
All I would say is that there may be some cleaning apps which are
glorified delete keys that remove applications and depending on your
memory and swap size this may help if you free up more space for swap.
Another thing I’ve noticed is there are some utilities out there that
will clean up the filesystem but I’ve always been skeptical of these
since the Mac uses a much more modern filesystem that as you said
should adjust as it’s in use. It does slow though though. When I was
using rotating drives I would backup and restore periodically because
the disks would crawl. Think god this is gone in the Flash drives.

I’d like to throw in my 2 cents here. I’m a software engineer, My job
involves designing (for both PC and Mac) different applications and
tools. So my 2 cents here is primarily based off of that knowledge.
Generally speaking anything that you might consider “junk” has the
potential to be an incredibly useful resource. Mac was designed off
of an operating system called unix. Unix had the job of running on
highly sophisticated servers for long periods of time. The whole
purpose from the ground up was to make sure that “junk” never even
got written to your hard drive.
Apple has worked very hard to make sure that those ideals stay true,
so “junk” doesn’t ever exist unless you as the user try very hard to
put it there. I personally wouldn’t ever pay to have a tool “clean” a
machine that was already clean. These tools (as far as the mac is
concerned) aren’t preventative nor are they able to solve any serious
issues. The moral of the story is just don’t worry about it. If your
mac starts running slowly take it to somebody that knows what they’re
doing, otherwise trust the system.
Unlike windows there’s no such thing as a “defragmenter” or “cleaner”
that just magically makes things run better. It’s also (in my
experience) not necessary to restart your mac very often because
again, if a problem exists there isn’t some magical fix to that
problem. The mac is a system that in general, doesn’t produce issues,
but those that it does produce are more serious.

Thing is this. How can you tell what's junk and what you really
should keep? Without becoming a Mac expert, (which I am not.) how
can one tell? I reckon this may especially be true if beta testing
yes?

Chris,
Mark and I bought a multiple license copy of clean my mac and it’s
been absolutely wonderful to use!
I run it on my mac every week and it always finds junk that I’d
otherwise miss! I haven’t regretted buying this from the get go!
It does even more then clean junk, too, so take some time to
explore all that it does, and can do, for you.

I just bought a single use license for $39.99 to Clean My Mac. I
have got to hand it to ya. This thing has found junk on my drive
that I didn't even know was there! Granted, it's taking for
ungodly ever to finnish the clean process, but slowly but surely,
it seems to be getting there. It clames that there are about 3
gigs roughly that it can clean of just crap that I don't need.
Yes, I did look through what it's deleting. I'm not that dumb. LOL!
I also was able to completely remove about 16 applications that I
haven't used in several years, and get rid of all their gunk left
over, like PLists etc.
Needless to say, I am incredibly! impressed! I'd highly, highly!
recommend this Utility, if you don't already have it. Yeah, it's
a little pricy, but for what it seems to be doing, it looks like
it's going to prove to be fabulous!
Chris.
