I have been seeing a similar problem, OS X 10.6.5 with TM 1.5.10 (no
project+), mine does not crash when going back and forth but I am
getting the spinning ball when I have files open that are stored on a
network volume.  It is about anywhere from a 5-15 second wait when
switching back into Text Mate from another application.
