So, why does repair permissions cure a slowed down OSX mac? Every
once in a while, without new installations, it starts taking longer
and longer for windows to open and thing to get done, and fixing
permissions restores it to snappiness. This is with both of my
iBooks, 2001 600 G3 and 2005 933 G4.
I do use cron apps so they do the same thing just as well, along
with other maintennance tasks they left out of X....

The Disk Utility Repair Disk Permissions process has nothing to do
with a user's files. Nothing to do with the files for which you,
the user, control access to your files via the Get Info.
But Repair Disk Permissions has all to do with software on the
Mac. It has all to do with the operating system, the updates from
Apple, the applications from Apple, and third party applications.
The main benefit from repairing disk permissions is to straighten
out the damage that can occur through installation of some third
party applications. This has to do with UNIX keeping track of the
existence and whereabouts of software files and folder, not the
user's files and folders.
