[TxMt] Re: TM lags when switching

I have a similar issue, when switching and away from TM and back (usually
when I receive and IM, etc). The ball starts spinning and after 10-15 secs
TM and all project windows will die. In my case, I'm not using shortcuts
(crashes have nuked unsaved data, whoops), just the trackpad on my macbook.

I'm using the latest TM on OS X 10.5 with project+. I think that the crash
has occurred when using projects with text and/or python, which were
probably stored in a dropbox folder (although I recall this happening before
I began using drop box).

Personally, I'm suspicious if this is somehow related to window focus, since
Adium will be spawning a growl notification or updating the message window.

I know this isn't a whole lot to go on, but I hope the information will be
useful. I'm not that familiar with capturing crash data on OS X, but I can
see what I can get the next time this happens.
