Well, I mentioned the RAM upgrade, but he wants to hold out. As far as
system resources, everything looks normal. Nothing is really hogging
the CPU or memory.
I didn't even think of checking the permissions, because it never was
an issue on my Linux boxes, or my Lombard, so I never thought about it.
It has about 27 GB free out of 37.3 GB total, while my Lombard, which
is trouble-free has only 1.7 GB free out of 6 GB total. If this helps,
most of what he does with it is photo storage and light editing in
iPhoto.
Hopefully, we can come up with a fix,
Caleb

The amount of I/O you need to push to affect performance is really
high when it comes to journalling. I doubt the mini is even able to
do that much. To be honest I'd double the RAM in that at least, 256MB
is a bit slim for OS X. Does the Activity Monitor show anything
using lots of CPU or any system resources?
How much disk is free as well? Also have you run a fix permissions
on it since any updates? Incorrect permissions can cause weird
slowdowns (I've had that happen to me).
