What happens to a machine if someone never repairs permissions?
#5
If there is a problem with permissions, it's not going to "slow down" your machine. What might happen is that a program, or part of it, won't run properly. Or you might not have any issues at all.

When I used to run it, I noticed that a lot of times it would say permissions were incorrect on certain files. But they didn't, or wouldn't affect normal use of the program. It might say that "others" (users who aren't either the owner of the program, or in the same group as the owner) has write permission enabled, when they shouldn't have. Does that affect me? No.
