I'm using hardy as well and I'm finding tab switching slow (or opening another tab) in Pidgin too. Not 5 seconds slow...more like 1-2 seconds slow. Non-the-less...very annoying. I'm using a mix of gtalk and MSN. I do not have the 'Evolution Integration" plugin enabled. I really don't want to delete my .purple directory either...

Any other solutions?
