Thank you for posting your question here on Fixya.com.
The motor is likely failing. It may be a small part such as the capacitor or the starting switch, but could also be more severe such as the winding itself. You will also want to examine the shaft where it passes thru the pump and motor and look for signs of rust from a pump seal leak.
If you are not familiar with testing these parts your best bet would be a local electric motor repair shop to see if the motor can be repaired or if it would need to be replaced. They should also be able to ensure there is no pump damage.

SOURCE: Is a Hayward cl-100 ef chlorinator the right model
The cl100 should do the job. The first thing I would do is check the chemicals. Make sure you have enough stabilizer (cyanuric acid).If it's low your chlorine will not last long at all. Check the ph and alkalinity also. Make sure you are running the pump long enough. the cl100 only adds chlorine when it's running.
SOURCE: I have a leak in my above ground sand filter,
Usually in th bottom of the filter you have two parts. The first is a piece with a screen that threads into the plastic housing. The second is a Cap with a rubber washer inside. Make sure the rubber washer is there. Do not overtighten the drain into the houseing

32' round by how deep? Flow rate is how you size a filter so with total gallons you can calculate how many per minute will add up to the whole pool being turned over is 6-8 hours. The pump and filter are then sized for that required flow...Assuming the pool is an above ground ~4' average depth then total gallons would be about 24,000 gallons. For an 8 hour turnover you would need about 50 gallons per minute. The 210T, T for top mount, is designed to handle up to 44 gallons per minute and turn over a 21,000 gallon pool in 8 hours or a 26,000 gallon pool in 10.
What that basically means is that using a 210 on a pool 32 x 4 would be pushing it. It will work but you will end up backwashing more frequently which raises the overall cost of running the pool. If it is not to late a 24" filter would be better; especially if you have periods of time in your pool season where heavy amounts of debris such as pollen get into the water. A 21" filter won't handle any over a normal filtration load.

Rule of thumb for a 2 HP pump using a 2 inch pipe is between 60 and 80 gallons per minute. Factors affecting flow rate is the distance between the pump and the pool, how many bends and turns and of course the condition of the filter. If you need to meet a specific turn-over rate, use the lower number to determine in the event you sould be called on the carpet.
Low speed? I am sorry. I don't know the rule of thumb on this.
You could install a flow meter, available at your professional pool supply. They are easy to install and not a lot of money. Follow the installation instructions as best as you can.
Incidently, comercially speaking, the 'turn over rate' should be around 8 hours for a public pool. Your jurisdiction may have other standards. Commercial pools should run 24 hours a day at that rate during the open season. Turn over rate means all the gallons of the pool should go through the filter in 8 hours, or all the gallons should go through the filter three times per day. Example: 16000 gallons of water in the pool, your filter and pump should be pumping 2000 gallons per hour. Studies show that it actually takes up to 5 days to get every actual 'chunk' of water to go through the filter, so, many of the 'chunks' of water go through the filter multiple times per hour. BTW, I use the word "chunks" in an effort to better paint a mental picture of what is happening. I am not suggesting your water has "chunks" in it.
