Can someone tell me if OS X (10.6 or 10.7) automatically runs the Daily, Weekly and Monthly maintenance scripts when my computer is asleep? If not, does OS X cause these scripts to run at the next point when the computer awakes?
MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Yes, they run automatically. If the computer is asleep at the scheduled time then they will run when the computer is available.

Yes, Apple fixed that issue that they would only run in the early AM when most users have their machines off/sleeping and clog the machine up.
No need to worry about having to do anything anymore unless you have a glitchy issue, then the free OnyX will clean your machine's caches out nicely.
