I would run a utility like [http://www.northernsoftworks.com/snowleopardcachecleaner.html|Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner] and delete all temp files and clear all caches. I have that machine as well and I found that a RAM upgrade made a nice difference (4GB). You can always get a faster HDD as well. another suggestion is that you defrag your drive and optimize your files. If your drive is close to full capacity, I would do a clean up of all large and unused files and give the drive room for swap files.

I also recommend using Monolingual, a nifty little software that removes all unnecessary languages from the OS and applications. It even gets rid of universal binaries, which can speed up the opening of Apps.

Another suggestion is to upgrade to SnowLeopard if you dont already have it, back up all your data and do a clean install of the software.
