Disc Capacity is 93.04 GB, Available is 74.12 GB.

I just emptied 322 items from trash, forgot to look at how much space that was taking.

FWIW I'm on OS 10.4.11

Greetings,
How full is your disk?The disk requires "Swap Space" during the boot process and if your disk is close to being full then the "Swap Space" is small and the boot process has to keep swapping little pieces at a time to boot.
Have you emptied the trash lately?

It seems to run slow and when I need to reboot it takes over 10 minutes. Are there any obvious easy things to do?
