I checked out the font directories but couldn't find anything strange. So I copied all the fonts from my user's font folder (~/Library/Fonts) to a new folder, restarted my machine, copied all the fonts back and restarted one more time (not sure if the restarts were necessary). After this, my machine works fine as before.
[Editor's note: I have no way of really testing this myself, so it's published here as a possible troubleshooting tip for those that may be experiencing slowdowns in OS X.]
