I've had a handful of reports about slowdown occuring (sometimes)  
after a while, and cured by a restart. I've only seen one profiling  
from this case, but the problem looked to be with font handling.

If your problem persists after restart, it would be helpful if you  
could run Shark (Apple's profiler, it's in the CHUD (install) package  
on the dev-tools DVD, or a separate download from Apple's site). It's  
basically just Stat in Shark, then use TM intensively, and Stop.

The profile producted is huge, so send it to me privately.
