Hi Emrah,
Heres an apple tech tip on how to clear sluggish VO movement by deleting the Caches folder. This helps minimize the "busy" issue for me. :) Basic steps below; To empty out the Caches folder on your computer, you’ll need to open up Finder first. With Voiceover on, you can press V O D, and it should default to Finder. Then press V O Space. Once Finder is the focused application, press V O M to get to the menu bar, then V O Right until you reach the Go menu. In the Go menu, select Go To Folder. The location is ~/Library Once you’ve typed that in, press Return. In the Library folder, you can select the Caches folder and then press Command Delete to move it to trash. I recommend restarting the computer after you do this.
