If you need to change the Splitter position, then apparently the control is not completely adjusted. Every time some layout property changes the LCL has to recompute the layout. To avoid overhead, you should react early instead of late. If your splitter depends on the client size of its parent, then you can use the parent's DoOnChangeBounds/OnChangeBounds or AlignControls.
