Hard drive speed tweaks may be the answer. try this:
/sbin/hdparm -c1 -d1 -a1 -m16 -u1 /dev/hda

*note - the hda is the drive on my box... you may have a different device setting ie /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc ect

just a thought

This helped me a LOT! Things start up at half the time now and XMMS has stopped distort sound when I start a new process.

Is there more tuneing that can be done? Was I just lucky that these parameters was right for my HD?

Take a look at the difference in testresults by Bonnie in attached file.
