I'll stick my oar in and say that I've also had the audio freezes too
since coming back to work on Sunday. At first I thought it was the new
impOSCar AU that I was trying out but that was just a coincidence. It's
happened about 10 times since then - usually lasts about 10 seconds and
the mouse freezes too!

Before, I get into this, I remembered one other question that would
be helpful to know the answer to: When the hang happens, does the
mouse move normally? That is, does it stutter around or move smoothly
like normal?
My observation reg. Mail.app: Mouse moves, but nothing else happens /
is clickable. Only Beachball when over a Mail.app window...
(corresponding observations with iChat, Safari, but I got used to it)
At any rate, 50000+ messages in one folder is probably on the large
side for mail folders.
Hmmm. Dunno. Shall I delete some?!? 8-))
Opening one is going to cause a massive amount of disk IO and
possibly a fair amount of VM paging, especially given the amount of
RAM you have.
Something interesting reg. paging: I put huge precalculated tables
into my stuff as const static arrays in .h files. - When I got
dropouts in one of my plugins, I watched top (after some long,
hopeless searches for bugs 8-) and found out that sometimes these
large lookup tables are not necessarily loaded upon Component open. I
got page ins. Hence, if you have lookup tables, better touch them
once upon loading a plug...
(sorry for being a bit off topic)
