Open up "Process Viewer" and watch what's happening, sort by CPU. I had/have a similar issue turns out that the HP printer software is broken under 10.2.2 where it will max out your CPU(s) leaving no power for other applications. Later I found this confirmed on HP's web site. (NOTE: not all HP printers, check hp.com for details) But you never know what combination of things could be conspiring against you.
