A new View Category from within IB defines the following method for views in  
palettes:

- getMinSize:(NXSize *)minSize maxSize:(NXSize *)maxSize from:(int)where;

Either (a) IB is calling this WAY too much or (b) some objects implement this  
method inefficiently.  I have not yet written a palette under 3.0 that uses  
custom views (I have done Objects, though, and love it!), so I can't say which  
at this time.
