Just done the 10.5.2 ( and graphics ) upgrade on a 2008 MP 2.8 octo, intermittent sleep problem seems to be worse, keeps doing a restart. Also Photoshop CS2 slower to open than before, 10 secs on new machine but only 5 secs on a G4 1.25 DP on OS 10.3.9. Finder sometimes takes a while to open but didn't before upgrade.
Everything else seems to be okay although I am a bit disappointed that it doesn't feel any different apart from nontransparent menu bar and more stacks options. Its not the life changing experience that some people had hoped or hyped it up to be. We should just be thankful for good solid and stable OS

Same here. Everything seems to be cool, even after a couple of reboots. Oh, except for the fact that my startup chime plays only through the internal speaker, no matter if speakers are connected or not.
Adobe told me CS2 apps not certified for Leopard - likely to have issues. Also, CS2 will run in Rosetta on an Intel Mac which would definitely make it slower in every way. I upgraded to PS CS3 awhile ago on 10.4.8, which is superior in many ways to CS2, Leopard issue aside. Can't wait to see it scream on a MP.
I was just about to create a new thread when I found this and your post.
Exactly the same here. I've noticed window dragging is also fecked up.
What GPU do you have? I have X1900XT - just wondering if its the graphics card update or the 10.5.2 update that's caused this performance drop.
Thinking of doing an archive and install again
edit....
So I reset P-RAM and ran the leopard installer disk / disk utility and repaired the macintosh HD and it found some errors.
Rebooted and things seem to be back to smooth. Will keep an eye on this though.
The only problem I've had in the upgrade (fairly major for me) is that my Gearbox software (lets me play my guitar through the computer) now causes a kernel panic if I leave it running for more than about a minute, and if I try to close and re-launch, it panics immediately.
I posted a message about it over on the Line6 forums, hope they fix that one soon.

My roommate and I each have the same machine, and are encountering the same problem. Haven't found a solution yet, but I'd love to hear if anyone else has.
