Clone the system to a Samsung 840 Pro SSD
Move all the non system stuff to 2TB hdd(s)
More RAM than 16GB likely
2.26Ghz is the slowest sold and it does matter in 90% cases faster is best
Regular cloning and reformatting and when did you do a clean install, and did you get to ML over top of 10.6.8? that can gum up works. JAVA can be trouble. Anything you used that use to rely on Rosetta of course is not.
Separating system and data nd keeping drives to 50% or more free, and SSDs they need to be TRIM and restored from time to time.
