the ubiquitous <<DiskWarrior >> from Alsoft seems to do the job more often
than most disc utilities, currently it has to be run from OS9 [by
starting up from the CD itself], nonetheless it seemed to do a good job of
keeping an X volume in trim here.

full X version coming soon.

I'd recommend partitioning your drives and occasionally <clone> the OSX
partition so you have a fallback to a system that worked.

Actually, I'd recommend cloning a new OSX install with applications too,
end never overwriting it. So you can then always go back - but not quite as
inconveniently as going back to square 1.

Then, you might like to have another partition to copy across the
currently working X partition, perhaps weekly.

Sounds complex.

Takes a bit of understanding but it's all worthwhile - if it saves time
and frustration.

ps
 You can't just copy OSX as that routine doesn't copy all the parts, you
have to clone with a utility like <carbon copy cloner>, have a look at
