When I open a lot of fonts or DAs, the response of my Mac becomes annoying
slow. Here is the way I have tested this:

As I need a lot of fonts, I have a lot of fonts open with Suitcase. When I
did use DeskDraw, the drawing was very slow. When I closed all my fonts in
Suitcase, Deskdraw became very fast. I susoected suitcase was the problem, and I
copied all my fonts directly in my system. The problem did not dissappear. I
turned all my INITs off, but again the problem did not dissappear.

Can anyone explain me what is happening here?
