TextMate is smart enough to not underline your keywords and commands, so just use the system spell checker if your language is supported.
Aha! That is good news. :-)
Well maybe, cause I use the built in spell checker too, and it pretty much makes it useles in LaTeX. Try this: Write a long line spreading across say 10 lines in softwrap and enable spell checker. Then try to add something to the line etc. This littereally takes _seconds_ on my machine. I don't know if it matters how many words are miss-spelled, but that's likely to make it even slower I suppose (for that, use the lorem snippet to generate the text).
That said, it's not really a problem when used in the languages where the checker is only applied to limited portions.
I have disabled cocoAspell and enabled the built-in Mac OS X spell checker to check spelling as I type and I am not seeing the slowdown you describe for long lines. I have soft-wrapped paragraphs that are 20+ lines long and I can type very quickly within them.
