Would turning the slave daemon off on the mac while the PC is actually the slave have anything to do with it? If both slave daemons are running on the Mac and PC - would that impact anything?
No it shouldn't be a problem, as long as no other master in the network uses the Mac as a slave.

I guess what I'm asking is if both the PC and Mac are running both as slaves and masters to eachother – would this slow things down? As I was testing both machines, I had the slave daemons running on both.

Apologies for the late reply. The daemon itself doesn't need much resources. It just launches the slave, monitors it and stops it on request by the master. I.e. as long as no slave is running on the same computer as the master, everything should be fine.
