Re: VO's response-time to keystrokes slowing down.
In the Applications folder you will find a utility called disk utility. You can do a spotlight search for disk utility and probably get it as a top hit. From the first aid tab, do a verify disk and then repair disk permissions to see if that improves the situation. If you are using less than 4 GB of memory you might consider investing in more memory. Also recommend not using system HD for recording projects, rather using a firewire external drive because audio is going to eat storage space like mad which will inevitably have a negative effect on over-all performance.

Re: VO's response-time to keystrokes slowing down.
Yeah. This is a RAM issue. I've noticed it happening more of late though. Usually, just pressing command tab to switch from garageband to the finder or another app, and pressing it again to go back to garageband, seems to solve the problem. And of course, cycle VO off and back on with command F5.
