I don't think that has much to do with Leopard, since I also get that spinning ball now and then, and I'm using Tiger (also on a MacBook). Also many apps take ages to load, for example: Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Entourage and Excel.

Give Leopard some time! I bet after 10.5.2 it's going to work like a charm. You said it yourself: Tiger also wasn't the best at 10.4.0 or 10.4.1.
