My N900 runs fine for a day or 2, then slows down so opening or closing anything (including locking or unlocking screen) takes maybe 5 seconds or so. Today i received a call, the screen stayed blank, then it flashed up with the caller, i hit answer and my open conversations header popped up in the background, then i was able to answer. I tried playing a recorded video, opening the media player takes an age, then the video froze after 10 seconds and i had to wait for the device to respond again before closing the player.
It does this for another day perhaps before being almost totally unusable. If i open a web page in this state it freezes and won't respond to anything and i have to remove the battery to even turn it off.
I thought it was perhaps the digiclock widget, but having removed it from the desktops it's made no difference. I thought for a while it was being OCd to 1GHz, but even at 900 or stock it still does it (kernel v42 by the way).
Other widgets i have are nicolai's desktop switcher, OMWeather (set to update once a day), QBW, touchsearch, connect-now, recaller, bluezwitch, FM transmitter, default media player, photo slideshow, location, default calendar and email, and yellownotes. I also have battery graph installed.
There was an almost identical thread a week or two back, i think the only solution mentoined was to get alarmed and use it to set a 4am reeboot.
I dont get to see any problems related to extended up time myself as i use 2 batteries and an external charger, so i didn't look too hard.
Its probably worth a search to see if any other solutions were offered.
This is a problem that has persisted since day one. There is a fairly lengthy thread about it here
There are a few scripts and applications around that claim to speed things up again, I've tried them all, for me none made any visible difference though others claim much success.

I didn't always have this problem, which is why i'm confused about it.
What do you do to resolve it? Just reboot every day?
