Part of this seems to stem from UFS - with zfs I have experienced a considerable improvement in this regard. It's still not what one expects, but it's much better.

   What kinds of slowness ? For eg. Slow login/ Slow Firefox startup/ 
Sluggish Menu response/ Anything else ?
   Is anything hogging your CPU ?

   Have you tried the following tweaks:

   svcadm disable basicreg
   pkgrm SUNWupdatemgru
   pkgrm SUNWbrg
