MacBook Pro Slow Booting and Operating

Hi all, I've been searching around the forum all day reading similar entries and trying some of the proposed fixes, but unfortunately none of them have helped my situation.


Last night I was working on my machine as normal, running a program called Pro Tools for audio work, and it froze up on me. Eventually I had to force the program to quit and was able to restart and run with success. However, this morning when I started up the machine for a session I was taken back by how slowly it booted up. I was even more taken back by how slow the machine was operating once booted. This has never happened. It is even freezing momentarily as I type this with the colored wheel spinning.


So far I've made a backup with Time Machine, put preferences in another folder temporarily, repaired disk permissions, checked SMART status is GOOD, reset SMC, and I'm sure some other things I can't remember.


Activity monitor is good - shows CPU @ 80% idle, and RAM is 5.53GB Free of 8 GB.


Here is a log of my last boot. As I understand it this may help some of you more advanced users in identifying any causes. THANKS in advance for any advice!!!
