Years ago back in the days of Panther we had a slow down problem,
tunred out it was the driver for our printer, which back then was a
HP 2110 all in one machine. Took out the driver and Mac was back to
normal. It slowed the machine down as a whole, even when I was in
OS 9 using Outspoken, but I had the driver on my side then as well.
Took it out, OS 9 worked fine then my wife started complaining that
her OS 10 side was slugish, same solution. So it could very well be
one app specific.
In the case of the particular driver though, it wouldn't immediately
slow down the machine when installed. It would happen later.
Glad the computer outlasted the printer *lol.* Didn't have same
problem with Tiger though because we did have that printer still when
Tiger came out, and still used it for a while. Well my wife used it.
Now use Codak,haven't had any problems with that one.

Its probably got something to do with one of the apps that you have
loaded. I have similar model, and haven't seen that happen.
Learn to use activity monitor to monitor cpu and disk use of
processes for spikes.

Subject: Slowing...
Hi,
On my MacBook Pro 13 that I bought in October, it feels like
everything is slowing down. The Item Chooser menu causes the
"Safari Busy" announcement at least once but more times on
particularly big pages.
This is a fast computer (2.26 Core 2 and 4 gb RAM) but it gets
slower all of the time. Sometimes, I can even type ahead of the
thing (especially in Mail) where I find that my misspellings are
usually due to a missing letter.
Has anyone else, using one of these newer models, seen something
similar? If so, does anyone have a cure? If not, can anyone guess
at a solution?
