Your Mac only runs the maintenance routines at 3:15 am and if your  
computer is asleep or off, they don't run.  Onyx, as was suggested is  
a very good tool for doing what doesn't get done if what I mentioned  
it true.

Booting into safe mode can cure a ton of troubles as it repairs many  
ills.  It's easy to do also.  Simply reboot while holding down the  
shift key....log in and then restart normally.  When I was  
experiencing a slow down and a miscellaneous app crash or two, the  
nice folks at Apple recommend it to me.  It worked too.
