MSIMEService, MSIMEReconvertOptions, MSIMEMouseOperator, etc... those are all Messages that Microsoft Office looks for and sends to the IME during operations. For the most part all those messages are just stubbed.
The messages are Registered in Imm32/imm.c once per process, and also registered in winex11.drv/ime.c also once per process. I am pretty sure we do not send those messages somewhere. So I am not sure why they would be taking up so much cpu time.
Do you know what is happening with the messages during the slow-down?
Oddly, they don't seem to be happening on Dapper. I'll try again on Gutsy tonight. (Chris Smith says he saw something like this with iTunes on gentoo today, too.)
