It sounds like you setup Fink at one time and then either deleted it or changed the name of the folder it is in or something. Everything under /sw is related to Fink, and the init.csh is a script that you run at login to setup paths, etc so that Fink provided software will run.

That won't have anything to do with your computer running slowly or anything though. For that, I would recommend checking the "top" command and see if there are any odd processes running.

Yeah, I had this last week when I deleted Fink it's not related to your computer being slow at all.

run these:

top
&
sudo fs_usage

It seems to me that you have an app that uses a lot of disk. Or just try to reboot once.
