Q: Repairing Permissions in Disk Utility (10.7 MBPro 2.4GHz), but still slow! Any advice upon reading my output?


Current scenario:

2-yr old up-to-date Lion 10.7 on my MBPro Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHZ upgraded RAM to 6GB is suddenly showing sluggish startup and opening applications very slowly (non Pro Apps and Pro Apps alike)…when multiple apps are open simultaneously (simple stuff like: Safari, Photo Booth, etc) and I have a handful of tabs open in Safari, I am getting slow response in every category from time it takes to open an application, all the way down to simple keystroke delays. This is becoming really annoying and having a direct negative effect on my ability to be efficient and multitask! so I zap the PRAM a few times using the startup key combo, and try running DiskUtil to repair permissions. But alas, I seem to get the same thing each time after repair/verifying permissions a couple times… my output pasted below.


My QUESTION: I know from articles I've read on this discussions board that I can all but ignore the output lines like "ACL found but not expected on…" but is there anything in the output i've pasted below that I should be worried about? Anything that might be pointing to a bigger problem?


I also startup in singleuser mode and run /sbin/fsck -fy once every 10 days or so…is this the right thing to do? My overall speed and efficiency is not improving. Please lend me your infinite knowledge, apple gurus. Thanks!
