No, I don't think it slows down my phone and I believe the chiming stops if you lock or unlock the phone - I don't mean stops permanently but stops if it is in the process of going off. of course when I look at it in the iTunes store it sayd "downloaded" instead of a price but I checked and there's only one app just called "chime" and only one called just "Westminster Chimes" though there is also a "lite" of that one. I also have one called "hourly chime" but the other two chimes make it unnecessary for me as I recall.
