Do people run SL without the described problems when they have a Pentium (4) that does have SSE3 instructions and this legacy kernel?
So, do you have Pentium (4) +SSE3, and do you use this/a legacy kernel without (described) problems? Let us know!

So the beachballing and high cpu usage is caused by the thread race/thread locking/Grand Central Dispatch problem... I guess the SSE3 emulator was still only for the 9.x.x kernel and not 10.x.x... or its missing some other SSSE3/SSSE4 (not SSE3) emulation?
