After some minutes I'm using LaTeX Watch (which BTW is simply wonderful and makes writing in latex a pleasure. Try it!) the Skim CPU cycles go up to 35% (also when both TextMate and Skim are not active or in the backgroutnd).
If you can sample Skim when this happens, we might be able to tell you what's going on. Use Activity Monitor or `sample Skim 5` in Terminal (and that should probably go off-list).
At the same time the process "ATSServer" goes above 20%. Pretty puzzling since this should be the ATSUI - Apple Type Service thing, how is this related with TeX?
Apple's PDF frameworks apparently use ATS underneath; SendOFAStrikeMessage shows up in crash reports periodically. You might delete /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS and reboot, since that sometimes helps with ATS problems.
