Since i got my 24" imac back 2 years ago, i always put it into sleep mode.

I upgraded to SL a couple weeks back.

Just in the past 2 days, when i put it into sleep mode, it takes a while for it to actually perform this operation.

Anyone know what might be the problem?

Same problem here with my 2006 MBP 17' I am just taking it in stride.
After all it still does wakeup quickly :-)

Gave that one a shot when I first noticed it, no dice :-(

It's not that bad, I mean it wakes up just as fast as when it was new :-)

Have you tried resetting PRAM?

i ended up just reinstalling SL. Now the problem seems to be fixed!

I love Mac computers, it went fast reinstalling SL and it didnt wipe any files or settings off the computer, unlike Microsoft windows!
