About 2 weeks ago I noticed that when I try to put my Mini, OS 10.6.8, to sleep it takes about 15 seconds or so after I choose 'Sleep' in the Apple Menu for the machine to go to sleep. All applications are closed. I thought maybe something was still open so I check with 'Console' but didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

Any ideas what is causing the delay in going to sleep?

How full/fragmented is the disk? Its still going to be writing a couple of GB to the disk for safe sleep purposes.
I have plenty of more important things to do, if only I could bring myself to do them....

My HD is only about 20% full and I defraged the disk with TechTool about a month ago so I don't think either of those items is causing the problem.

Any console errors? Something's abnormally delaying sleep mode obviously.

After much searching I found the problem. A conflict with iGlasses application. Forced quit and Sleep is now operating property.
