I do have a problem with my Components (Audio Units) folder, which has 442 items right now. I get a pause between 2 and 10 seconds when resizing the Finder window or selecting an item in the window. I see no CPU spikes or messages, but there is a disk read the entire time of the pause, with a disk write right when it clears up. I tried turning all my services off in the keyboard system preferences, but it made no difference. I just figured out the new Snow Leopard services techniques. At first I deleted some older services from the Services folders and I thought it fixed the problem. It seemed to be working fine, but the next day it was back.
