Time Machine Troubles

timemachine by apple
One of our computers (iMac 2007 4GB Ram) was being really slow and was not handling High Definition in Final Cut Pro, and was giving the spinning wheel of death prior to every edit for most FCP sessions.  Well we solved the problem yesterday.  As FCP was acting super duper slow, we noticed the TimeMachine was backing up the computer…in the middle of the afternoon.  Switched TimeMachine software OFF and the iMac’s running FCP and DVDStudio Pro and all applications like a speedy sewing machine.  Guess the TimeMachine program uses a large portion of the memory! Anyh0w, thought you would be interested.  If anyone else you know if experiencing slowdown this might be the issue.
