You must have some system daemon going wild, perhaps because of something
on your network.  I currently have 36 NFS file systems mounted on my machine
and BreakApp has no problem at all.  If you know how, you might try running
a "ps" in a Terminal to see if there are any processes eating up cpu
cycles.

Also, is it possible that someone is logged in to your machine over the
network?
