Sorry to sound like a broken record but re-installing an OS or performing disk cleanups is just skirting round the real problem. Yes, a fresh OS install always performs better and yes a disk cleanup can have some speed benefit but ultimately you'll find yourself back where you started.

The OS install route is fine if you can store all your saved files and have the media or whatever to make sure drivers and applications can be re-installed but it's a whole load of faff just to grab a short period of better performance.

That's what I think anyway.
