Yes. WindowServer is a piece of **it. I get that 6 to 7 delay almost all the time when switching from Chrome to TextMate, or the reverse.

** you can monitor it's CPU usage for a more definite proof. Mine has a tendency to jump around 50-70% when that happens, and there are many reports of something wonky going on in Apple forums.

It seems definitely related to the number of windows I have open, so closing some of those alleviate the issue. I'm not intimate with either Chrome or TextMate tab handling, but I suspect somehow one tab = one "window" (to the window server).
