OSX 10.7 – All My Files … are killing my computer
One of the new features in OS X Lion is “All My Files” which shows you a list of your most recently opened files in Finder. I didn’t really see the point but kept it there in Finder as it didn’t seem to hurt. That was until updating to 10.7.2…
Post update my computer would slow down to a crawl and Finder would crash frequently. After changing what is shown in Finder on startup from “All my Files” to my Home folder (or I guess any other folder) everything has returned to normal. To do this open Finder (if possible) and click Finder -> Preferences. In the General tab locate “New Finder windows show:” and change to another folder.
Change the "New Finder windows show:"
I hope this helps anyone with the same problem.

Excellent find! Finder was basically unusable with that feature turned on. I’ll stay on Snow Leopard for as long as I can!!!
