The only difference is that it hangs on the message: dyld: image not prebound, so could not use prebinding in /tmp/ OpenOSX/office/bin/AbiWord-2.4 Can any recommend something to try or point me towards some documentation? Were those binaries built with the Leopard tools ? As far as I know there is no prebinding done in Leopard. In the absence of other feedback I'd recommend 1) Profiling the launch (via sample and shark) to see if a hotspot appears 2) File a bug report, providing the profile information 3) Provide the bug number on the list, and also a highlight of what samples and shark reported. This might be enough information to point to the issue This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
