Q: Menu bar icons continually refreshing
Every 15 seconds or so, all of the items on the right side of menu bar - including the clock, but excluding the Notification Center icon - disappear and rebuild themselves. This started yesterday when I upgraded to OS X 10.8.2. I've removed all of the third party apps from the menu bar and it is still happening.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I just installed the Mountain Lion 10.8.2 Combo package and it seems to have fixed that UI stuff. Everything still feels slower, but that might just be a psychological thing.

Please note that I still am not aware of the root cause of the original problems, so I have no advice on how to avoid this issue in the first place.
