Slowed Down??? Help would be appreciated

I recently read that for Leopard to function properly it needs a lot of hard disk space - 15% of capacity plus 9 more gigs. Does your hard drive have a lot of space left? Also, have you added any 3rd party software that might slow things down? I've also heard the suggestion that you make a clean account when you first install and don't put any 3rd party apps there - then you can tell what is system and what is a software problem.

How did you install Leopard? Try logging into another User account. Is it any faster there?

The only difference I've seen with my MB is that it takes longer to start up and shut down. Is there any way to fix this?

I've also experienced this problem and I have just installed Texshop on my macbook. Isn't there anything I can do to speed it up? Because after installing Leopard, the macbook just slowed down. But mine does not take a minute...to open Safari, just a bit more than it used to take with os X 10.4
