Android Central posted a FAQ for the Hero that linked to a post on their forums suggesting that this would speed up the Hero. I must have somehow missed this because it's the first I've ever heard about it. Anyone know if there's any truth to it?
Never mind. Naturally right after I post this I see a post about it in another thread.

Location services bug on Android 1.5.
Every day, open your settings and uncheck ALL location services for 30 seconds. Tick them back on.
The hack that fixed this on GSM phones doesn't work on our CDMA devices. Google, HTC and Sprint all recognize this bug, so nobody is sweeping it under the carpet. People are seeing it more now because they are rebooting their phones less and aren't downloading app after app playing any longer
Toggling the location services will release the processor and things will speed back up. I'm not seeing this issue at all in 1.6 so I'll have to agree with the 'official' statement that the bug was fixed in Donut.
