I noticed that my squeak development image is getting very slow. For 
example when switching windows I wait about one second. Opening a 
browser takes several seconds.

The only odd thing I found is that when I switch windows the weak array 
finalization process in the process window peaks at 82% cpu usage.

My squeak image 3.7 runs on OSX (800 MHz powerbook) and is used to 
develop a Seaside application.

What I would like to know is:

1. What causes the slow down

2. How can I correct the problem

Any ideas?

Best Regards,

Frank
