recently ran OmniDiskSweeper and found duplicates of 10GB's worth of movies (deleted no problem) and i have always had about 15gb in the "other" section, no problem, i have read the multiple threads and posts on that and understand its a lion and system files thing. but 8GB of sleepimage? is that a lot?

also i installed the new 10.7.3 and a couple of my apps did not support it, so i used time machine to roll back and now i notice if i hold the option at start up there is no recovery option. I am fine with this because I use the thumb drive but that doesn't seem right. not too worried about this, my MBP is running really great after the roll back and cleaning using Onyx.

But if anyone knows about how much sleepimage should be stored or if 8GB is a little extra, it would be helpful.
