Two things I have found to help the most to improve everyday usage on OSX Lion without an SSD:
1. Disable Spotlight on the boot volume. This keeps the mds process from reindexing things so frequently.
2. Use Time Machine Scheduler (free utility) to backup at 5am or something so it's not interfering with daytime tasks.
