I've had this issue for a while, and it's bugged me quite a bit.
When a game is open, Spotlight's search results for anything other than very commonly used apps becomes miserably slow. I understand that "Game Mode" is supposed to limit background processes which would include Spotlight, but I've noticed that even if a game is simply open/doing absolutely nothing, Spotlight is still painfully slow, even as it seems to be utilising quite a bit of CPU (up to 100% in activity monitor).
If this is a common problem, I'm hoping this is improved in Golden Gate...
