Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on my Macbook Pro freezes quite frequently now. It freezes for few seconds and then works fine. During that time trackpad does not work and keyboard works partially (missing keystrokes while I type).

Initially it was once or twice in a day but now it has become quite frequent. Is somebody else facing similar issue?
