howdy folks, im running snow leopard but tried sketchup version 7 and 8, seem to have the same issue. it probably is related to osx, or a real bad SU bug thats been there since who knows which version.
however as pointed out by Karlfucious
"Sounds like its an issue with Snow Leopard. It works fine for me on Sketchup 8 and windows 7."
it can seemingly work. but what are the circumstances?
if anyone could just drop in with a few clues about their mac (snow leopard) setup, appreciated it, maybe we can figure out what it might be that way.

did i miss anything useful?
if thats less mac and even less an issue of SU, it might be the ruby interpreter itself, what other possible factors do we have?
and i really don't think that installed applications should be the annoying part, that would be just weird.
btw, reinstallations don't do s.
please be so kind and paste any kind of information not findable adhoc by google.
(it's the first hit on 'sketchup mac os x round corner slow', thus it should provide the proper information including a solution at some point..)
leaving my 2 cents as-is. checking back in later.
greetings
