Question / Help OBS lagging before it streams

While i'm streaming i'll notice that OBS after approximately 20mins will begin to lag in the program itself before its even uploaded to twitch though if I switch scenes then back to the first scene the display does not appear to have any lag.
what i have on the main scene is a window capture of minecraft then a small video capture of my webcam and possible another window capture of Skype for current call, the other scene I switch to that refreshes the sources is an away/brb message that states the stream will continue in just a moment. Side note I have OBS open in background as I write this and i've beginning to realize a slight lag from my sources, yes its only been couple mins so there isn't big notice so i'd say half a second sort of delay now without it even streaming. not having any complaints from friends through Skype of webcam being off as that was just recently purchased, I have only began to notice this since i've updated to 0.6.+ so planning on downgrading back to 0.5.2 for the moment till I test this again otherwise a very pleased customer.

An example can be found here, a live stream my friend and I last night:

start at 00:02:30 then jump to 01:04:20 you'll see the obvious lag thats what the program is sending out.
