The Cellar - View Single Post - Is wipe and reinstall the ultimate solution.

The laptop monster uses got to having a horrendous startup time after a bout 2 years, so I wiped it and reinstalled everything (at least I belive I did, I reinstalled from the ghost image on the recovery partition). Now a only acouple of months later it is worse than ever.

Is there stuff that could have survived a simple reinstall like this, or has it really aggregated crap so fast?
