if you havent already, check how cpu intensive each vst instrument or effect is...
some of them can be ridiculous, and not always worth it feature or sound wise.
if you can replace it with some third part vst (or abletons built in ones) that takes up less cpu, do so... its a balancing act between that and quality though.

at a certain point though, you will only be left with freezing and bouncing down until you can get a new computer.
How can I reduce the CPU usage in Live?
you can disable all the services that you don't use
