Mac performance tune
A Mac that's slowed down over time usually has a specific cause - a runaway daemon, a launch agent on every boot, a fragmented Photos library, a thermal throttle. We find the actual cause through log analysis instead of guessing, then fix it.
Sayed, macOS performance and log analysis
Quick answer
'My Mac is slow' is a symptom, not a diagnosis. The actual cause is almost always one of: a runaway background process eating CPU 24/7, dozens of unwanted login items and launch agents, a swapped-out hard drive that's nearly full, a thermal throttle from dusty fans, or an old macOS that's lost compatibility with current apps. We find the specific cause for your Mac through Console log analysis and Activity Monitor profiling - then fix it.
We don't run 'cleaner' apps. macOS doesn't need them and they often make things worse. Instead we audit launch agents and daemons, identify the few that are actually problematic, remove them, clean caches by hand, free up storage, check for thermal throttling, and audit installed apps for known troublemakers (old kernel extensions, abandoned 32-bit apps still trying to launch). Then we measure before-and-after with the same benchmarks so you can see the difference, not just feel it.
Profile + measure baseline
Activity Monitor capture, Console log analysis, boot-time measurement, benchmark snapshot. We document the starting point.
Identify the actual cause
Almost always specific - a runaway process, thermal throttling, a corrupted Photos library, a launch agent gone wrong. We find the few real culprits instead of guessing broadly.
Targeted cleanup
Launch agents and daemons audited and pruned. Caches cleared. Old kernel extensions removed. Storage cleaned. App-specific fixes (Safari profiles, Mail rebuild).
Re-measure + compare
Same benchmarks re-run. We hand you a one-page before/after summary. Usually 2-5× speed improvement on the operations that were slow.
