Just about a month ago I had a laptop that was getting increasingly sluggish to the point that it
took almost 20 minutes to start up and become somewhat useable. What I noticed was that the disk
activity light would go on solid and the system would nearly stop responding to me. Replacing the
hard drive cured the issue.
I would check the logs for disk errors or lots of "corrections". Do you have smartd running?
